It is an Intel EtherExpress Pros acutally running under BSD/OS. Ive
set them to Auto but IIRC they only autoed to 10/half to the 2924, so I
pegged the speed/duplex on the switch and the card auto'd up correctly.
Interestingly enough Ive got two other identical machines but they are
plugged into a Cat5500, 100/full and no errors on those ports. Then again
they are really low traffic machines.
Will fiddle with that tommorrow and see if it works.
Thanks for the suggestion.
