This is what we've arrived at, after checking lots of other things (like switch ports, etc). Basically, what happens is that the NIC (fxp0) is configured, and it will connect and transfer files locally, but the throughput ends up being 12.x kb/sec.... horrific. BUT, it seems fine after the system is installed and rebooted. Anyone else note this problem? _F To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
