Clive This sounds like an auto-negotiation problem on either your 10/100 hub/switch (not sure what you have) or on one or more of the client 10/100 NICs. I am willing to bet that the person who got the large mail without problem has a 10 Mbit/s (no 100 Mbit/s) card or a card that doesn't auto-negotiate. If you have 100 Base-T everywhere, see if you can turn off auto-negotiation and set them all to 100 Mbit/s. Apple used to have a utility available that turned off auto-negotiation on built-in NICs. Can't remember the name, but the TIL may mention it. -- Neil Neil Herber, RGD Corporate info at http://www.eton.ca/ Eton Systems, 15 Pinepoint Drive, Nepean, ON, Canada K2H 6B1 Tel: (613) 829-4668 ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
