I seem to recall seeing this same problem on a 9.x or 10.x system. In my case the fix was to replace a failed component. For the life of me I cannot recall whether it was the NIC, the cable, or the switch. As a first step, at least, I'd swap cables. If that doesn't fix it, move it to a different switch port - or better still, a different switch entirely. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tim Daneliuk tundra@tundraware.com PGP Key: http://www.tundraware.com/PGP/ -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
