Hi Guys,

Didn't have time to write more at length last time. If the K8 is an
nForce 4 chipset you'll have connectivity problems if you're not
auto-negotiate on both sides of the Ethernet cable. That might explain
the problems. We had Sun swap all our X2100s for X2100 M2s because of
the problem.

I can post a full internal write-up from my company on the problem if
that ends up being the issue.

Best Regards,
Jason

I'm seeing the same problem on a K8.
