Since it hasn't been asked .. have you checked the link speed and verified it isn't negotiating at 10Mbs/half instead of gig-e or whatever you're using? I found an rl card (yes I know rl, not re) that decided it really hated the bay switch it was attached to and would only negotiate 10mbit/half, even though the xl card in the same machine negotiated 100mbit/full. Silly stuff like that, and duplex mismatches, can cause problems like this that are seemingly random between reboots. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
