	FBSD seems to have a bug in ???

	I installed a FBSD 2.1 on a very slow 386SX16 4MB. As I have 4
ethernet cards, I decided to display FBSD windows on my Linux machine
by one ethernet cable, and to use the  second cable for NFS mounting.

	The  first time I rapidly used that  (starting from FBSD), it was
 working fine, but the second time, one of the two links seemed to be
 broken (I was pinging from Linux).

	In fact, and roughly, pinging from Linux wasn't working, and when
I tried from FBSD, a couple of times, it began to work again.

	If I let both machines not working for a while, the problem appears
again...

	Has anybody ever experienced such a trouble ?
