Since about two days ago a box had been spewing: dc0: watchdog timeout every 10-15 seconds. Network connectivity was nonexistant. I tried down/uping the device, reboots, network plug, anything I could think of. Nothing helped. And this box has been running since FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT #6: Tue Sep 28 16:48:13 CDT 2004 without problems. Not constantly, it goes up in the morning and down at night. Switch lights were active the during the whole 'scrolling timeout' period. I was about ready to call it a bad network card when all of a sudden I switched the KVM back over to it and I see dc0: failed to force tx and rx to idle state as the last message on the console. No scrolling watchdog timeouts. Interesting I thought. I down'ed the interface and brought it back up and tried pinging the router. Success. So, after about 36 hours of watchdog timeouts it came back to life. Any idea what this might be? -- Ryan Sommers ryans_at_gamersimpact.comReceived on Fri Dec 10 2004 - 03:41:38 UTC
