I'm using Red Hat 6.0 with kernel 2.2.5 and I have frequently the
following problem, when the kernel log messagges look like:

Oct 12 09:21:11 bbfw kernel: dst cache overflow
Oct 12 09:21:16 bbfw kernel: NET: 3 messages suppressed.
Oct 12 09:21:16 bbfw kernel: dst cache overflow
Oct 12 09:21:20 bbfw kernel: NET: 2 messages suppressed.
Oct 12 09:21:20 bbfw kernel: dst cache overflow
Oct 12 09:21:29 bbfw kernel: NET: 1 messages suppressed.
Oct 12 09:21:29 bbfw kernel: dst cache overflow
Oct 12 09:21:30 bbfw kernel: NET: 2 messages suppressed.
Oct 12 09:21:30 bbfw kernel: dst cache overflow

Then the network is not working anymore and I have to reboot
the system. I have seen similar problems reported in other
newsgroups, without any response.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
