A look at dmesg shows that it can't even find the MAC address of the ethernet card if the mac's turned on when it boots. I'm marking it down to a crummy ethernet card or something weird on my network, if nobody else has any ideas. > Or else it's a network problem (if you're on coax, did you forget to > terminate the line?). 10baseT, both machines go in to a hub. They're the only machines on the network at the moment. -Dave -- angio@aros.net Complete virtual hosting and business-oriented system administration Internet services.
