Well, I don't really use the switch. I just used it to compare it with a
100Mbit network. The NIC's are directly connected with a shielded CAT6
cable, so that shouldn't be a problem. The server is a P3-733 with 384MB
ram and the files are served from a lvm partition striped over two IBM
GXP60 7200 rpm HD's. No one else but me are using the server. The client
is an XP1600+ with 512MB ram and a Western Digital 7200 rpm & 8MB cache.
The NIC's are from Intel (PRO/1000MT) so they ought to be good.
I have also tried to compile the driver into the kernel to no avail...
Below is also the output from "ifconfig eth0" and "cat
/proc/net/PRO_LAN_Adapters/eth0.info" for both the server and the client
in case it helps. Any other info i ought to supply?
Cheers,
P�r.
