What makes it worse is that on a busy router the DOWN/UP of the interfaces causes the ixgbe card to lose all network access until the box is rebooted. I can reproduce it easily on a variety of hosts from both HP and Dell. Therefore a patch that would not cause the card to reset would help a lot. ================================================ This e.mail is private and confidential between Multiplay (UK) Ltd. and the person or entity to whom it is addressed.
