Hello,

I have a duo 280 and a ethernet equipped dock which is connected to 
another machine with a crossover cable.
A couple of days ago, I got some funny sounds, rising(I think) chimes 
when starting from the dock and the monitor attached to the dock lost 
power.
I attached the monitor to a separate socket, rather than going through 
the dock and it started up ok after a few tries and other weird noises.
The duo now seems to work ok in the dock, but I can no longer get 
AppleTalk to work between the machines.
I am guessing it might be power supply related, due to the monitor not 
getting power from the dock.
Could something have damaged the ethernet card, it is a farallon nubus 
one?
Is it safe to keep using the dock?

Thanks

John Johnston
