As discussed on irc, after some period of time which can be anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks, the via_rhine driver will stop making new tcp (out) connections. I can still ssh into the system, and perform dns lookups. This is happening with both the 3.3.8-server-2.mga2 kernel, and the 3.4 kernel. From lspcidrake ... via_rhine : VIA Technologies, Inc.|VT6102 [Rhine-II] [NETWORK_ETHERNET] (rev: 78) A tshark capture shows the driver is returning a reset, instead of an ack, in response to the syn,ack. The driver starts responding correctly, after a reboot.
Created attachment 3304 [details] tshark capture showing the driver repying to the syn,ack with a reset
Created attachment 3305 [details] tshark capture after rebooting, where it correctly acks the syn,ack.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life. Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- The Mageia Bugsquad
