>Description:
	On huge data transfers 600Mb+ of data file, the system generates this msg:

	wm0: discarding oversize fram (len=-4)

	Im running Samba 3.0.14anb1 installed from pkgsrc. The machine
	(Dell 2800) currently acts as a remote storage for backup. When I
	perform back-ups and move large files with sizes more than 500-600Mb.
	An error messages appears on the console.

>How-To-Repeat:
	I reverted back to a plain GENERIC kernel and even to a point of
	reinstalling the entire system from scratch. It still generates
	the same error.

	Again, I tried simulating a scenario mapping a drive from a WinXP
	and Win2k client and moved iso images from on a mapped drive to a
	NetBSD machine acting as a test Samba server. The same error message
	appeared

>Fix:
	First time I ever encountered such problem.
