    Hello

    I am experiencing some spookynes with FreeBSD 4.8 on the IBM
    x345 2U machine; the x345 comes with two on-board INTEL 100/1000 mb nics
    which uses the em driver. However, whenever I "up" one of the nics,
    there is a slight delay of a few seconds before the command
    completes, also the nic is not operating in up state yet,
    appr. 30 seconds passes before traffic actually can pass
    in/out .. It happens regardless if there is a cable attached
    to the nic. I find this rather spooky. Has anyone using the
    em driver experienced this? Other than being spooky it
    causes a problem with the box in question, since syslogd and
    other daemons times out at boot-up.

    Please include my email in any replies.

    Thanks
    Christoffer
