Thanks netl

ifconfig eth0 on that interface showed no TX errors but over 300RX errors
I will have to run those commands on the box when I get home the firewall

until last night it was a mandrake box but I corrupted the /usr partition
and re-installed rh9 but the slow transfer problem is common accross the
