Hello everybody,

 I just managed to lock my box and I want to report it

define "lock"?

Does it still respond to <CTL><ALT><ESC> on the keyboard? (Assuming you have the debugger in your kernel?). Does it still ping?

Sometimes these still respond even though the rest of the system appears dead.


in case it's known(or it helps in some way). It is a
6.2-STABLE from March 13.

I did update to RELENG_6.

The procedure that triggers the lock is simple:

1) Create a pptp tunnel.
2) Set is as your default gateway.
3) Play a bit with the netmask of the physical inteface.
In my case doing a few times:
ifconfig fxp0 192.168.1.71/16
ifconfig fxp0 192.168.1.71/24
locks the box.

I also have to mention that the PPTP
server is not on 192.168.1.0/24.

My kernel cf contains:
options         KDB
options         DDB
options         INVARIANTS
options         INVARIANT_SUPPORT
options         WITNESS
options         WITNESS_KDB
options         DEBUG_LOCKS
options         DIAGNOSTIC
options         SOCKBUF_DEBUG
options         BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER

options         NETGRAPH
options         NETGRAPH_DEBUG
and several netgraph nodes.

I still cannot break to the debugger, is there anything
else I should add to my kernel cf?

Any ideas what to do next?

Thanks in advance, Nikos
