Network-related lockup in 7.3

Hi all. I'm having some trouble with a 7.3 installation freezing up on certain types of network connections. It's a vanilla 7.3 install on an ultra5. There are two network cards, a 1-port and a 4-port hme, and both have been configured in various ways to do some NAT. The lockups seem to occur primarily on tcp traffic. I can ping IPs and addresses, but when I try something like lynx or mozilla access to a site, the box locks up. This is newer behavior, up until a week ago, everything worked fine. I've primarily been tweaking firewall rules and ip configuration, but I didn't think any of that could cause a lockup. Are there any known issues with multiple IPs/devices, firewalls, and NAT on linux/sparc? I tried a newer 2.4.18 kernel, but am new to sparc and can't get past a 'VFS: mounted root fs (ext2) read-only' prompt. Any ideas about all this would be great.
