I have look hard before I posted this question.
I have NetBSD 0.9 up and operating with really no problems, however I notice
that I often get duplicate packets during ping, telnets, ftps etc.
So how do I stop it!  I never had this problem with 386BSD 0.1 (just startstart
start...on the console)  Please, I'm not up to reinstalling an new version just
yet, basicly by the time NetBSD 2.0 comes out I will have returned to the real
world and will be up to it.  The biggest problem with this duplicate packet
issues is over SLIP, FTP will pause ever few seconds when a duplicate packet
comes over the line.  Other than that, kudos to the developers, I am very happy
with it!
BTW: Please post to this news group, my mail doesn't work all of the time.
