I have a firewall running NetBSD 1.4.1, it's not firewalling too
much, about 10 computers behind an ISDN circuit. It's using ipnat and ipf.
What appeared to be for no reason, the kernel paniced. I missed what caused
it, but after using gdb, here is the outcome:
bacardi# gdb netbsd.0
GNU gdb 4.17
(gdb) target kcore netbsd.0.core
panic: m_copydata
#0 0xf01342ed in m_copypacket ()
(gdb)
All I have to say is HMMM. I'm not sure what would make this happen, like I
said, it was just just going along it's merry way nating packets, etc.
I would like to prevent this from happening again if possible.
