I haven't, will give that a shot the next time this happens. The DHCP server would be a good candidate (172.16.0.2). I do get the "destination host unreachable" message, which generally to me means that my network link isn't active/alive. And just to confirm my own sanity (or a small piece of it), I *can* ping the gateway when things are behaving nicely. I'm tempted to suspect a switching issue of some sort, but have no solid grounds for doing so. -- Dr. Ed Morbius, Chief Scientist / | Robot Wrangler / Staff Psychologist | When you seek unlimited power Krell Power Systems Unlimited | Go to Krell! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
