kris, thanks for your reply.  whats the best way to tell if i have 
mis-negotiated?  is just 'ifconfig' sufficient?  i was wondering about this 
earlier, and reboots of the hosts as well as the switches yielded no 
different results.

also, i did a few other tests as well.  i can scp to/from the 7.0b3 and 6.2p8 
from/to each other as well as other hosts on the network at what i would call 
normal speeds (6-10 megabytes/sec).  also, i can 'cp -vpnRP' directory trees 
from/to the same with normal results.  only installing kernel from the 7.0 to 
the 6.2 stalls out.
