I am seeing an increasing number of inbound errors on one of my systems. 
There are no errors indicated on the cisco switch the system is connected
to.  I get about 250 errors a day.  There are no errors indicated on any
other other lines from the 'netstat -ib' command, the output of which is
below:

Interface is onboard:

sis0: <SiS 900 10/100BaseTX> port 0xc400-0xc4ff mem 0xcfffc000-0xcfffcfff
irq 11 at device 3.0 on pci0

I have several other systems with similar configurations that have never
shown any errors like this.  The system is colocated, so I don't have easy
access to swap cables, switch ports etc.  Any idea what could be causing
this?

Thanks,

Alvin
