Just what a Software geek loves to hear - its a hardware problem.  ;-)

Oh, wait a minute, its *my* hardware problem!  *PANIC* =-O

Luckily, I do have some diagnostic equipment for the CAT 5... and 
"plug & pray" for the hub ports.

Thanks, George.

BTW, is there a RTFM of the "ip -s link" output somewhere?  The 
google for "man ip" wasn't particularly helpful...
