Okay, tried it this time. It worked for a short period of time, as I could ping the default gateway. When I tried to ping it from another host, that is when it decided it would go dead. This time, it did not go crazy and lock the system up at least. I tried at both full and half duplex, with the same experience. Regards, Aaron On Tue, 23 Apr 2002, David S.
