Yep agree.

...and that's the rub, yes I am using the AYIYA client on the same machine
Mystic runs. When I kill it the problem disappears. It also seems that even
via an internal LAN connection using ipv4 the same issue happens. It's a
combo of the AYIYA client and/or virtual driver used by windows to create
another virtual LAN connection and netfoss not playing nice.

If I had run AYIYA on another box there would be no issue I'm sure but given
the tunnel starts and ends on the box the SixXS software runs onI don't
really want to do that as it would add an extra layer of complexity in to the
who chain of events.

The fact that the doors seem to think the carrier has been dropped just after
netfoss has been called makes me think it's related to the additional virtual
lan driver.. really don't know.

First step will be to run an updated version of the fossil that I can see I
can updated to using 1.11 but there's a 1.12a out now.

Not overly hopefull though...

Best, Paul
