Stop trying to relate your problems to his. They have nothing to do with each other. Your attempt to find similarities where none exist is counter-productive.

I don't know what your problem is, and you have not provided enough data to figure it out. (Just how do you know there are many FCS errors anyway. How did you meature them? Did you test performance too? If so, how did you do that? What switch do you have?) -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (510) 749-2329 | Senior Engineer, Master of Unix-Fu wpaul_at_windriver.com | Wind River Systems ============================================================================= <adamw> you're just BEGGING to face the moose =============================================================================Received on Thu Jun 17 2004 - 18:04:27 UTC
