Yhe machine contains 2 3COM Etherlin III catds. The Networks on both sides are 10baseT. As usual with FreeBSD, this machine was easy to set upop and get going. However I am now having a problem which I can't figure out. When the machine is subjected to sustained heavy network trafic (amanda backups). The card on teh control system side hangs in an OACRIVE state. I have at this point in time, changed the 3COM card on that side, swaped the hubs between sides, and even upgarded the computer fomr a 486/66 to a P75. If anything the P75 seems to habg sooner. Cany anyone make any sugestiosn as to what to ty next? -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy!
