Possible, but judging from the "up-down-up-down" stuff on eth1, it looks more like there's still autonegotiation going on between eth1 and the switch it's plugged into (I'm assuming you're using two different switches). Since you didn't include the eth1 configuration yet say it's "almost identical", I have to assume that something's buggered in there or that THIS version of the driver for eth1 does autonegotiation in a different way than that on RHEL4.2 (not uncommon) You could try fixing the ports on the switches to the same settings as the NICs (100Mb, full duplex, no autosense) and see if that helps. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - I won't rise to the occasion, but I'll slide over to it. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
