VICTOR_APR07 is just a copy of GENERIC config file


>Description:

When copying ~>10MB files over the network, the system freezes occasionally; for files >100MB freezes almost always; no warning messages; 
observed with scp, samba, and postgres connection requiring transfer of >2M records; systems on the other side were WinXP, Win2003, and Linux;

Hardware used is Asus M2V motherboard with amd64 dual core processor; Attansic 1GB network card working in ndis mode and 3Com 3c905B-TX network cards.
This behavior occurs for both interfaces; also with Attansic disabled and other 3Com interface used instead;
The motherboard is new, Adaptec RAID controller was moved from an older system working with freebsd 6; did not have any problems before;

appreciate your help;
