Thanks for the suggestion, there is no question that the hardware will be changed. But I am curious why only my suse operation gets hit. Even the vmware virtual network card vmnet1, which is mapped to eth0 manages to pull and push its packets cleanly thru eth0! I think i will install a linux virtual machine before i switch, just curious if the packets see the difference!!! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
