Harald,

Hi Jamal, thanks for your reply.

I would probably start by downing most of those devices and still see if
the problem is reproducible with two ethx devices.
If it is reproducible there then replace the nics with something else
like tulip or dlinks and see if it still happens there.
I suspect its a driver issue so if you try the above you can prove it is
not.

Yes, that was my recommendation, too...   I also recommended disabling
more and more features (i.e. remove iptable_nat, iptable_mangle, ...) to
see if the problem disappears at some point.

However since this is a production machine, I doubt there is too much
room for experimenting.  We're now trying to reproduce this issue with a
seperate box in the lab, though no success so far.

cheers,
jamal
