I've been trying a number of different ethernet configurations
out... and at first I was willing to accept that the cable may have
been at fault. However, Now that I have had the chance for further
experimentation, it appears that it may not.
I am using the 4-port DLink adapter (uses tulip chips) on the server
and currently intel fxp0 chips on the clients. With this setup, I get
a huge number of OErrs on the deX interface (nothing shows on the fxp0
on the other end). If I use an fxp in the server, no errors... and I
have tried a variety of handmade and professionally-made cables to
join them.
I have even tried shutting down full-duplex... doesn't help.
Any ideas?
Dave.
