[OpenIndiana-discuss] weird packet garbling problem

[Jake Young]

Thanks Jim!

I've seen similar behavior to what Ed described on a Solaris 10 Sparc box
(V445) that is in a remote office.

I'll try that setting and see if it resolves my issue.

I was VNCing in to an OI box in my office from my laptop via VPN and sshing
in to the V445 box to kick off some backup scripts (which take a long time
to run, due to the slow link to this office).

Oddly enough I never had any issues with the automounter or nfs share I was
backing up the V445 to.  One issue was with the ssh connection between my
OI desktop and the V445 dropping out (note there is very little text output
in my backup script) after an hour or two. My other issue was having the
VNC drop out between my laptop and desktop.  It was setup as a persistent
session, so no big deal, just annoying.

I think the V445 interfaces are bge and the OI desktop is e1000g.
