The FreeBSD-2.1.5 box functions as a 'webserver' coupled via a leased line over a simple 33k6 modem. So far no problem, but about 50% of the incoming packets must be retransmitted because of 'fcs error'(90%) 'packet too big'(7%) and 'protocol error <hex-value>'(3%). The outgoing side has no problems (or not noticed yet). I do think it is the rts/cts handshake between the system and the modem, but I cannot get a grip on it. Thanxx in advance, Jeanine van Velzen
