Also, at the risk of stating the extremely obvious, be sure to check *all* hardware. I had the same problem over the weekend with an old 10Base2 (cheapernet) card. I checked and rechecked all IRQs and even swapped cards, with no luck. The terminators turned out to be faulty. As soon as I put on two brand new terminators, the timeouts stopped, and the network started working. ---- Brian Clapper ................................................... bmc@n2k.com http://www.netaxs.com/~bmc/ .............
