I have a problem with my background key cruncher on my network gateway
machine. My other machine on my lan can get out through my gateway
machine to flush and update its key buffers, but my gateway machine
cannot. It has over 990 blocks in the out buffer waiting to go.
My distributed-net.log file looks like this:

I'm running portmapper, and would be happy to upload my config files
to anyone who's interested. Thanks for any help.
