I just had a strage incident,
Here is what I think is relevant.

Nov 23 22:33:41 AeroSpace in.telnetd[22046]: connect from LightHouse
Nov 23 23:03:18 AeroSpace kernel: IP fragmenter: BUG free!=1 in fragmenter
Nov 23 23:03:18 AeroSpace last message repeated 2 times

I have my comptuer sliped to internet and over a serial port sliped with
my brohters computer next to it.  I was doing ip forwarding and
masquerading so he had access to internet.  It happened when he pinged
me, that is the only time it happend so far.  What happened was my 
computer just seemed to
start accessing the harddrive a lot.  I lost total control of it,( I was 
at console) nothing
I was typing was showing up.  Apparently information was still going over 
the serial
connection.  When I say accessing the harddrive I mean the light was all 
the way on.  I have
20 megs of memory, (current usage)
AeroSpace:/proc/18285# free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers
Mem:         19564       9712       9852       4924       2248
-/+ buffers:             7464      12100
Swap:        20472       2860      17612

After the harddrive stopped accessing I was looking at a login prompt at that
console and the terminals didn't seem affected.  I checked the
/var/adm/messages and that was the relevant information I posted.  Anyone
have any ideas?
