I am using 4.8 and qmail for a high volume smtp relay on three identical =
1u servers.  Sis MB, pIII 833, on board nics, idea, shared memory for =
viedo set at 2mb.  Nice boxes. Call them mail1, mail2 and mail3... Each =
have their own networking issues that I could use a hand with.

email1: - Dead
It worked fine for a day, now after a reboot i get the following error:
sis0: PHY failed to come ready.
the whole box hangs and needs the power cut to come back up, at which =
point it repeats the same problem.


email2: - It works for a while
It works for about 30 mins until it seems to 'drop off the internet'  By =
this i mean... it receives and sends mail at its ip for 30 mins and =
then.... It can ping itself but it can't ping its gateway router. and no =
other computer can ping it.  But it doesn't crash.  I have been =
rebooting every 1/2 hour, hardly the best solution. (hey im new)  And i =
would really appreciate any input that would sever this computer =
attatchment disorder.

email3: - It works!
hey buddy, no one is as suprised as me.

Like I said, these configurations are just about identical.

Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks
