Hello,

I had a GPF with a clean linux-2.0.32 after 8 days of uptime.
The bad guy appears to be IP firewalling, as is clear from
the log.
My hardware consists of:
Cyrix 6x86L-P200, no kernel support,
AsusT2P4-HX board with Triton support
Quantum Fireball HD w/ native ext2fs
3c900 NIC (eth0) as a module, driver 0.46c
NE2000 NIC (eth1) as a module
IP firewalling, autoforwarding, routing,
masquerading, always defrag, icmp masqing
all in the kernel.

At the crash moment the load was 1.00 (quake ;)
The firewalling was in use because my second machine
(behind eth1) 's files can be reached from the local
network via SMB fs (hence that nmbd has to use firewalling)

Any ideas ?
