Sounds like a bad nic. If you have a spare, you might try swapping with it.
Also, what's the other machine and what is it running?
The NIC is fine, and yes I swapped it out early on as well as the cable
and the port on the switch. I've also tried a crossover cable. I've also
tried all the different media options in ifconfig as given by ifconfig
-m dc0.
This is a basic install with only samba installed. Nothing could be
simpler.
