>Description:
I have a machine running 4.3-RELEASE with several interfaces. Yesterday I lost contact to it from another machine at my local network. I was logged in as usual on it with ssh and it just stopped responding on its IP-adress. I tested from other machines at my network, no respone. I connected a monitor to the machine and the console looked fine. (I had no keyboard to connect). 

The machine is using the 'rl' (RealTek 8139) network driver. This problem has happened before. I am using NAT on the machine.

>How-To-Repeat:
Just let it be on and the problem will come, after about say 2 weeks.

 Realtek is a crap network card.  That may be your problem.

 If you want anyone to help you on this one, you'll need to do a lot
 more detective work yourself because there's a limit to how much we
 can guess from over here with no details.
