List,

Recently I turned my server into an online gamming server. It is a Red Hat
7.3 server that is ALL up2date as of 7/12/03. Shortly after running as a
game server I noticed that when I do an ifconfig, I get some overruns. No
errors or other annomolys, just the overruns. Below is an example output
of ifconfig. Is this something to worry about, and what exactly is an
overrun?

Thanks In Advance!!!
