As far as I've seen, disabling the chimney offload seems to pretty much disable everything else and take care of the problems I've seen.
The netsh command effects the actual running stack and stores that value someplace "hidden". It doesn't touch the registry variables, it overrides them. Regards, Michael B.

Does that netsh command actually modify the registry? I swore that was done, but now I don't know unless it does modify the registry as well, as it was enabled their. Thanks! jlc From: Michael B.

Casale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2008 12:24 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP Servers and MS Scalable Network Pack I am still having a slew of issues on an HP DL380 G5 and PSS hasn't even mentioned or looked at the settings for SNP but my problem is identifiable by http://support.microsoft.com/kb/938486. I don't have any options enabled on my teamed Broadcom nics in the HP app, but the reg entries are all enabled. What are your practices for disabling the SNP features on these machines, HP app only or reg entries as well? I made the reg changes and rebooted so I guess I will see if its cured. jlc ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
