One incredibly odd quirk. :)  If you use natd and pppd (not sure if this
problem happens with user mode ppp) don't even think about telnetting out
from the FreeBSD box.  Your system will most likely reboot itself with no
warning.  Telnetting from another box thru the FreeBSD box works though.

(Why is it that I always find all these bugs, anyway?)
