Hello, putting that one back to list, it's not silly ;-)
I tried ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> same result. So the nic isn't the problem ... I looked into dmesg again, the bios is mentioned as AT/286+ there?! Is that normal? Btw, the IP-Address is unique ;-) Are there known bugs on VIA-CPUs? Which informations do I need to provide? (dmesg is hard, I have to write it up, but if that helps, let me know and I'll do it).

For starters, have you tried to ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] This would give a clue where the problem could be. Further make sure that there is no machine with the same ip on your net - I've seen before that some connections were 'dying' all over sudden when another (linux) box with same IP was closing 'illegal' connection.
