I'm asking because I've seen *abysmal* performance under 100BaseT (no, I don't think it's the half-duplex/full-duplex issue - ifconfig -a reports simplex. Should I trust that?). I get numerous NFS disconnects, etc. This is FreeBSD 2.2.5 release. Works great under 10BaseT, but since I've got the bandwidth out there, I'd like to use it. -- Chris Faehl (cfaehl@cs.unm.edu)
