I have an odd problem with the network connection on my 3.1-Release box:

I've had the system up and running fine for some months now with no
problems that I couldn't solve, but this one stumps me.  Every day or two
now for the last week, the connection to the net just drops unceremoniously
(I have a premanent ethernet connection on an SMC9432TX ethernet card [tx0]
at 10Mbps).  When the connection drops, I can't even ping in or out.  I
don't get anything showing up on the system's logs, and I don't know how to
get it back up without restarting which always works.  Where should I look?

Here are the specs of the system hoping that ths'll help diagnose:
ASUS P2B-DS Motherboard w/ 2 450Mhz PIIs
SMC EtherPower II 10/100 PCI
256MB Ram, U2W SCSI HD.
The machine is primarily used as a web server and web development machine,
and I'm using SaMBa for some minor filesharing.

Please advise, and Thanks in advance!
 -sergio
