Ok.  Did this.  They seem to not be sync'ed properly.

The switch is at 100 FD

here is what the server is stating

vr0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         inet 209.45.199.32 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 209.45.199.255
         inet 209.45.199.180 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 209.45.199.180
         inet 209.45.199.165 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 209.45.199.165
         ether 00:80:c8:e8:ad:4b

         media: 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex>   <---  Is this stating that the 
NIC is at 10 FD?

         supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX 
<half-dupl
ex> 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex>

So, if the NIC is at 10 FD then how do I tell it to go 100FD?

Thanks!!

- Jim
