  Yep, CEF is turned on.  I don't have any logging ACLs, most of the
stuff I need to see can be looked at through just matches ( sh ip
access-list ).

  The next step is, *IF* it freezes to see if the console is still
responsive and if any logs are dumped to it.

  Also, the IPv4 protocol bug ACL was on the wrong interface until
just about an hour ago ( needed to be on the point-to-point
sub-interface instead of the parent interface, wasn't seeing any of
the permit ip any any matches.. so hopefully this was the cause of
my troubles.. but somehow I doubt it ).


Thanks for your input,
