I use an Intel 1 gig fiber network card in my server.

On occasion the network card will lose the ability to communicate with the
network, and just do nothing. Run an ifconfig and you'll see that it has
massive amounts of errors, which lead my server to have APIC errors on
both CPU's and finally an unexpected interrupt failure.

Mind you, this happend 30 minutes into the backup, and therefore just
tweaked Amanda. But man does 22 gigs go quick when its working.

It won't ever happen again, because Im taking out the gig card.
I'll have to check to see if their are updated drivers for my GNIC.
