Just a quick thought: There are updated drivers for the Hme and qfe NICs. You can get them from sunsolve.sun.com -- if you have SUN support. Hope so! Are you on a switch? Turn OFF auto-neg on both switch and NICs, and force 10 (or 100) and HDX or FDX. Are you using NAT? Do you have a NAT rule to NOT NAT local IPs to DMZ and back? This is recommended in the book, and makes sense.
