But, when I ship the machine off to the colo, it'll only have one network drop - so either I get the iLo working in shared mode, or I don't get to use the iLo at all. After further testing, i've found that it's the bge driver that's hanging the iLo in shared network mode. Which makes sense. It looks like that driver is reading at a low enough level from the hardware that it's intercepting packets destined for the iLo. So the iLo isn't hanging - it's just not receiving any traffic after the bge driver gets loaded. No clue if/how to fix this however. -- You are in a maze of twisty little email threads, all alike [ elakin@infohell.net | elakin@comcast.net ] ## set vi:nowrap tw=72
