Thank you. > Also could you reply to both the list and to my address, I've got a similar system (an old Compaq 486-66 Prosignia VS) with a built-in lnc adapter, but the errors I get on occasion are: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer These only seem to happen under high loads (such as when my backup software is doing a backup). Eventually, after lots and lots of traffic (usually several days, in my case), it appears the NIC stops working completely and you have to reboot the machine. I just wrote up a script that occasionally pings some of my other servers, and if it doesn't get any replies, it reboots the machine. A bad hack, I know. I'm replacing the machine soon anyway, so I haven't particularly cared about it. :-) -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
