Hi Well I do not think it's a pbm with the network cards because I have 2 boxes with LM9.1 and 1 box with LM9.0 using the same type of card and they all show the same pbm. Also these Dell 4100 workstation come pre-installed with W2K and I don't have this pbm under Windows...
What would be the best way to investigate this pbm? Thanks. /Frederic From: Mark Williamson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] LM9.1/9.0: Huge number of errors for eth0 RX packets Date: 08 Jul 2003 18:43:22 +1000 Hmm I had the same problem with a davicom card.. changed the network card to a realtek and problem was gone.. I know that a lot of people will think that the realtek cards ain't very good, but over the last few year I have found them very reliable.
