        The key is only when you connect to OpenVPN and then after successful connection, open a browser and the page should time out and you should get disconnected from the OpenVPN connection.

        Note the case for me,
        Once connected i would start up outlook to sync to exchange and openvpn would crash
        Same goes with doing a file/folder copy from host network to openvpn client.

            I haven't tried it with squid, I'll load that on next. Do you have the OpenVPN server assigned as an interface and squid listening there? Otherwise, squid wouldn't be doing anything to the traffic coming from OpenVPN

              No I am not having squid listen to anything but the 3 different vr networks.  I am just wondering if the setup may have something to do with it.  Doesn't hurt to recreate it completely.

                  Jimp,
                  it was most likely missed in this thread, but in my original thread with this problem from 12/13
                  had the packages i am running.  http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,31031.msg165512.html#msg165512

                  Packages i am running:
                  Squid
                  Squid Guard
                  Snort
                  OpenVPN Export
                  Light Squid
                  Anyterm

                  If need be, i can test by stopping Squid and such….

                    It might be worth trying without any packages. (the only one I have is OpenVPN client export) to see if it makes a difference.

                    One thing - for everyone seeing the panic on em(4) devices, the output from

                    pciconf -lvb
                    

                    For the em card seen in the crash would be helpful.

                      ??? JimP, I am a little confused, do you want me to type that in after the crash happens and the db comes up? If not, what would you like from the crash?

                        I have a net5501-70, a Pro 1000GT (pci), and a spare pppoe DSL line. Jim, I can set this up with openvpn if you want to test against it. I have no experience with openvpn though, so would need some guidance setting that up.

                        Also note that my DSL line has pretty poor sync rates right now, and occasional disconnects, which is why it's not in use :/

                        db

                          Just at a normal command prompt. It will show the chip id of the em card.

                            I'll keep that in mind, though I was hoping to do it locally since that makes it a lot easier to track down…

                                  Chip ID is the same on both of those, and on another one I'm talking to that crashes… Mine that run fine are a different chip.

                                    Interesting, my SM board has the same chip ID. My panics come around at 6-8 day intervals with no vpn use, no known factor other than time elapsed.

                                      LostInIgnorance - one more test for you since you seem to hit it faster than anyone else - can you try switching your OpenVPN instance to TCP instead of UDP and see if it makes any difference? Just curious.

                                        Just another "me too" .. panics in devd on the carp backup host.  Just got them while adding firewall aliases on the primary (no recent changes to VIP addrs).  I'll report if tomorrow's snapshot doesn't stop them.

                                          vito and others with em failing, can you look at the output of this:

                                          sysctl -a | grep 'dev.em.*fail'
                                          

                                          And report any non-zero values. Specifically with dev.em.0.mbuf_alloc_fail and dev.em.0.tx_dma_fail
