correct. if a machine dies freevrrpd simply reassigns the slave machine to the
virtual IP/MAC, in which case a new PPTP
Sorry to follow-up to my own message, but using a FreeBSD
4.6.2-RELEASE box with the Linux box works just fine. It uses an
xl0 instead of an fxp0.
I've done a sysctl -a on each box. Here's the differences.
Anything look suspicious?
Thanks.

Check out the duplex setting on the ethernet ports. Use
'ifconfig' and 'netstat -I dev -w 1' on FreeBSD
and
'ifconfig', 'mii-tool' and 'cat /proc/net/dev' on Linux
Any sort of errors may lead to this sort of behaviour. You need to match
the hosts to the switch port they are connected to.

I have a Linux box and FreeBSD box sitting on a 100Mbit ethernet
segment that cannot seem to talk to one another faster than
150K/s. I've been using scp, ftp, http, to test this.
A Windows box on the same segment can send/receive at 6MB/s with
either box, but for some reason the FreeBSD box and L
