Of course this would be the Machine you just installed right? Using the chroot install? If it is, then look at your Ethernet Config. If I remember right you had a GB Ethernet card.. something tells me you are using auto-neg on that card. Gig ENET cards are notorious for NOT doing nego properly, even if they are connected to 100Mb (being copper) or anything else. Set the card using ethtool. (apt-get install ethtool) If not, then I am guessing I need more info. -- greg, greg@gregfolkert.net REMEMBER ED CURRY! http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry Your presence reminds one of a blind jackal, eternally dependent upon misguided archbishops to provide instruction in bowling.
