Background: The client is an old Pentium laptop running 4.6 from
mid-July, using a 3Com Etherlink III 3C589 NIC (10baseT).  The server
is an Athlon XP running -stable from last Sunday, using a RealTek 8139
NIC (100baseTX FD).  They are connected using a cheap-and-very-nasty
switch.  'netstat -m' on the client shows no problems and there are no
kernel messages suggesting a resource problem.
Try switching the Althon box to running a 10Mbs/HD; your switch may not be handling the different speeds very well. (Although your NICs are also somewhat dubious in terms of quality hardware, too.)
