This does not answer your question but may keep you from having to reboot when it occurs. Try just restarting the network: > su - # service network restart It may or may not work but is probably worth a try if it can save some time. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Rice Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2005 12:57 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: scp killing network interface on FC4 Using scp to copy large files onto my FC4 system. After about 100MB the network interface dies. ifconfig says its still up, and I can ping localhost, but trying to ping anything else says unreachable. Requires a reboot to get it back. Any clues? Bad driver? Some sort of rate limiting policy somewhere? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
