I've managed to replicate this with 2 servers that are in the same vlan, 
plugged into the same switch. No firewall or suchlike causing the problem.
It's very weird, I'm starting to suspect the Tigon drivers for the 
broadcom BCM5703 card. im going to switch back to the bcm driver and see 
if it make any difference.

However, I have 12 blades running exactly the same build of RHEL4 
x86_64, and only 4 servers that are having the problem, and they are in 
different enclosures.

Cheers,

Tom
