>Release:        FreeBSD 2.0-RELEASE i386
>Organization:
DMR group
>Environment:

Our system is a 386 with FreeBsd 2.0. It serves as an Internet 
gateway. The main link with our provider is with a 28,000bps modem with PPP.
We aded a couple a serial cards and we provide 4x14000bps links in,
for our users with SLIP. They mostly use Netscape for news and
some surfing.

>Description:

Ever since we upgraded to 2.0 we have been having random system 
crashes, so we though, that did not give us any clues as to what was causing 
them.
We averaged 1 crash a day for the past 3 weeks. At first we tought 
it could be PPP, but we finally figured out that the system crashes
when a users using one of the 4 14,000bps modem abruptly ends 
his/her session.


>How-To-Repeat:

I was able to reproduce it, with a slip link with trumpet 2.0, with
a telnet session and a netscape session active, by resetting my
machine. A friend of mine also crashed it with a slip session with 
Linux.
