I'm also one of the people who always hard sets both ends to 100 full on servers. In my experience with auto-negotiate, things look fine and dandy when looked at quickly, i.e. link lights at 100 and FD and data passing fine, but problems seem to occur under heavy load. I noticed slight throughpu

I've heard that this problem manifests itself mostly with 3com cards(thats what we use in our compaqs) and we make sure we specify 100/full when defining the card. then there is no way it can utilize anything else. If your entire network is 100 mb stay away from aut-negotiate with the 3com car
