We have several identical systems and most are running fine. Mine is
running RELENG_6 and was updated on 2/15 and I have no problem. Another
system that was just updated last week (I don't have the exact time) is
showing the problem. Another was built 1/21 and runs fine.

Guess I'll try updating my 2/15 system and see if it has problems.

Another thing that might be related is that the system having problems
is plugged into a very inexpensive switch (Allied Telesyn), my system
uses a Netgear FS108 and the third is connected to a Cisco 3548. I know
that this is unlikely, but I thought that it was worth mentioning. All
are claimed to be running 100-FD. Unfortunately, the one causing most of
the problems is about 2000 miles away, so I have only limited access to
that one.
