bandwidth related, I'm suspecting that alot of the problem is the Linksys
switch we threw in when we first setup the servers ... at the time, I
didn't know that it was a bad idea :( If you do a trace to the servers,
you'll see a packet loss between 200.46.204.1 and the server itself that
just *shouldn't* be there. Apparently, on an unmanaged switch, if you try
and hard code the ethernet on the server to 100baseT/full duplex, the
switch, for some *stupid* reason, will downgrade itself to half duplex, so
you get a whack of errors ... right now, as a result, we're running
half-duplex on the server(s), which, of course, results in high collisions
*sigh* We're ordering in a new managed Dell Procurve switch next week, to
get that issue fixed ...
As to the hardware support itself ... see my other email ...
