I'm having some minor problems with collisions on my 2-node network. Or maybe it's major, depends on wether you think 482,653 collisions is a lot for a 5 day period :/ My configuration - (server) Debian Linux 2.1 Linux 2.2.6 Realtek 8129 100B-TX 32MB ram 4GB 7200RPM UW Scsi HD Hub Netgear

I had a similar problem once. Rebooting all the machines in the lan solved it, but I never figured it out. It hasn't recurred either. This also was with Realtek cards, interestingly enough (but 10base-2). Bob On Mon, Apr 26, 1999 at 05:33:22PM -0700, POP3 for aphro.. wrote: I'm having some

You *must* do this. For full duplex you need a switch, a hub won't be sufficient. ahh ok..didn't know that . What performance (in MB/s) are you getting? If that appears to be ok, don't worry about the collisions. performance is suffering pretty bad..I don't know what the potential
