With all due respect, I'm quickly coming to the conclusion that Broadcom Ethernet chipsets are the biggest pile of dung on the planet. Their software, in particular any NIC teaming configuration tools, is absolute garbage. I've wasted so much time just trying to get them to cooperate in a Windows 2003 environment. Never could get teaming to work right, so I've given up and accepted that we'll have failover only - no load sharing of the two NICs. Do yourself a favor and install some discrete Intel NICs and be done with it. -Jason -----Original Message----- From: Joel Jaeggli [mailto:joelja@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, September 07, 2005 11:19 AM To: lokesh.khanna@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Broadcom Chipset with squid On Wed, 7 Sep 2005, lokesh.khanna@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Hi > I am not sure if this is the correct forum to discuss this problem.But > I would like to share my exp. > > I am using DL380 compaq server which comes Broadcom Chip set for > Ethernet controller.

If yes what is the solution? I have have several broadcom chipset ethernets in servers. The driver for this ethernet chipset has undergone substantial ferment in the last couple of years, so as the first order of business you should probably consider installing a newer version on the OS preferably something built around the 2.6 kernel. fedora core 4 runs without any problems on a dl380... joelja > Thanks - LK > Disclaimer > ********************************************************************** > ****************************************************** > The information contained in this e-mail, any attached files, and > response threads are confidential and may be legally privileged.
