Hi! Everybody, I *am* subscribed to the list, there is no need to CC me at all. Doing sio just clutters up my mail sorting. :-)

I couldn't see anyone lese in this thread whos name starts with Tor... so I guess you were adressing me. I used this patch http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/re/re.HEAD.patch and it worled well for me. Without this patch, my machine would lose connectivity when network traffic increased (for ecxample transferring a large file). with this patch - no problems. After the last update, I saw that there had been a lot of fixes for re (4) in the source, so I didn't bother with this patch.The machine is still up, but I haven't tried any heavy network traffic yet. Note: this machine isn't really "in production" - I just test out stuff on it now. My plan was to use it as a server for virtual servers, but so far I have just tested qemu on it, and the results were not convincing (for some reason qemu is unstable on this machine).
