We have 519's like a rash when backing up over a mixed 10/100 network using 3Com
SuperStack 10/100 autoswitching hubs. Backup server is a beige G3 266 tower with a
DDS-2 DAT drive.
519's are the order of the day with the one G4 machione. It has work files on an
external 12 Gb FireWire drive and I think we've only once had an error-free backup.
Changing to AppleTalk did not help in any way.
Some days most machines (20+) give a 519 which makes me think network or backup server.
I am going to test a Cisco Catalyst Switch (with Spanning Tree turned off) and see
what happens.
