Hi Guys
I got a strange problem with my qube2.
I use it to connect 2 different networks, the final goal is to do a firewall
with it.
The problem is, if I start a large transfert from the network connected to
eth1 to the network under eth0, all the connections to and from eth0 are
becoming extremly slow : ping with more than 500.000 ms, impossible any more
to open a connection with ssh,...
However, if I do a reset of the network, with /etc/init.d/network restart,
the interface become normal again.
I've found this in syslog : kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed
out
My kernel is 2.4.27-r5k-cobalt.
What is the exact version of the kernel package? You can find out via
dpkg -l 'kernel-image-*' |grep ^ii
The latest version (on unstable 2.4.27-11.040815-2, on sarge
2.4.27-10.sarge1.040815-1) has a small fix which is supposed to address
this problem.

Do the latest versions also avoid the issue where the network would lock
up uncontrollably after a period of time? We have stayed back with
kernel-image-2 2.4.27-8.04081 because it is reliable on the network.
Thank you,
