As I recall, with a 10baseT hub a collision just means that two machines tried to transmit at the same time. Heavy network activity (such as transferring a large file) will often cause a sudden burst of collisions as a perfectly normal by-product. It's definitely to be expected if you also have a number of Windows machines on the hub, since they tend to broadcast constantly. -- Michael Heironimus -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
