Hi everybody !

I'm trying to create a local dial-up ip server for my (best) friends,
using FreeBSD 2.0, 2 US Robotics modems, an 3C509 ethernet card. 

Pppd works fine and establishes a good connection, only if the server
is not transferring TCP/IP packets (ftp, httpd, on ethernet or modem).

If the server is not transferring, I can establish a second connection
on the second modem and then work on the two modems.

If the server is transferring data, most of time it reboots after the
negociation, after message "Fatal trap 12 : Page fault in kernel mode".

Any help appreciated !
