I have 4 computers on a 4-port Network Everywhere router and I swear that my network is going nuts. I just do simple things like copy a lot of files to an NFS or do a large SCP and the machine that is the target just freezes up. I thought it was just a conciendence but then I realized I had one Linux machine mysteriously freeze up but I thought maybe since it was very slow but then my fastest machine of 1.13GHZ/512MB which is now 196MB also started to mysterious freeze up when it had either memory in it. Is something very odd going on on my network? How can so many machines be freezing up from FreeBSD to Linux? This sounds way too weird to be to be just a conciendence.
