Hi,
Recently there was a culomn in byte.com by Moshe Bar, and his tests seemed
to show that FreeBSD-4.1.1 could still beat the Linux 2.4.0 kernel. The
test machine was a 2-way SMP machine, running the a giant locked
FreeBSD-4.1.1 kernel and also a fine-locked 2.4.0 Linux kernel. Here's the

There are lies, statistics, and benchmarks. And then there are the

I've heard folklore that power-cycling the cable-modem works -
apparently it's the thing that remembers the MAC.

Hi,
I noticed that after upgrading to 4-BETA something goes wrong with ip
forwarding via ppp(8). I have a FreeBSD box (A) connected to Internet
via network interface and this system also has a modem for dial-in and
backup dial-up connection. Sometimes I need to route through this
modem traffic to

Right! A stupid dial-up connection I wasn't thinking of

Hi,
I have a 3com 3CXFE575CT pcmcia network card and need some help having
it recongnized on FreeBSD 4.2 on a Toshiba Tecra 8100. During the install, I
picked the default address for the card, and irq 11. At which time the link
light appeared for the card ( but did not make the usual "beep"
IIRC, this is a cardbus card. Those are only supported in current,
not 4.x. Get a cheap 16-bit pcmcia, for now.
