Quite wierd network problem
Hi,
Sometimes my network hangs up (I can not ping outside, I can ping on
localhost). Usually it happends once every 3 or 4 days. I'm currently
running 2.2.1 kernel, but it always happened (kernels 2.0.36 to 2.2.1).
For a long time, I though it was due to my network card (3com
3C905BTX2). I used to reboot the computer, and everything worked fine
after ... for 3/4 days.
I get messages like this one when the network hangs:
Feb 11 02:18:52 groumph kernel: Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=320)
Now, I discovered that doing:
# ifconfig eth0 down
# bash /etc/init.d/network
reconnects me on the network. I keep all my old connections, rlogins,
windows sent from other computers ...
Do you have a clue about what is happening ? How could I avoid it ? (not
having to open a root shell and type in commands ...).
Thanks in advance !
