I'm having a really strange problem with p2pool and I can't figure it out. Something related to it is killing my ethernet connection, seemingly when I refresh the statistics page randomly.

I asked for help on ubuntu forums, since I think it was a ubuntu problem but now I strongly suspect the issue lies with p2pool.

Here is what I posted on ubuntu forums with all the details: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2249933

Can a linux/p2pool guru give me a hand? I'm pulling my hair out over here and I've tried everything I can think of / find on google. I'm a linux noob.
