This sounds right. The spanningtree config will listen on the port for 30 seconds before forwarding packets from the port. If it were a driver issue or such, it wouldn't ever work. By disabiling the spanningtree (or setting portfast or whatever the option is on your LAN fabric) or adding a 30 second pause before trying the network should get you going on the first try. peter On 3/19/05 9:07 AM, "S.
