Dana:
Thanks, I'll keep this in mind when I replace the pci card. I probably
wouldn't have thought of that.

We recently had trouble with one of our HMC's ( a little newer than yours,
ours is a 7327 tower) but it also had one ethernet port on the motherboard and
one on a pci card. After an unrelated hardware problem and repair, the OS
wasn't recognizing the existence of the port on the motherboard, they finally
figured out that it had to have the hmc code reinstalled to correct it...
finicky beasts, these are

Thanks for the idea. Actually, I am keeping the old HMC. What I am
trying to work out is if I can simply install an ethernet card in the
HMC to resolve the problem. I am about 2 hours remote from the HMC so I
have not been able to look at the model information other than it is a
mini-tower, which I remember from the last time I was there. Perwez
suggested that this model (8485) has an ethernet port on the motherboard
and another on a card?. I do know that the ethernet connection to the
outside network is working, as I can access the HMC remotely. So it
looks like the failure is on the private (HMC-SE) LAN side, especially
since I can't access the SE. I am hoping that a simple replacement of
the ethernet card (assuming there is one) will solve the problem.
