This is no fun when you live 20 minutes away from the server. After all this discussion about NE2k cards, has anyone thought that maybe they don't handle well with certain motherboards. I have had uptimes with 1.2.13 of 24 days before I managed to hang a mtools command in a run state and wedge the floppy. I've left ping floods running on my local network for a bit to see how performance would be effected, without any lockups. Unfortunetly it doesn't sound like everyone has this happen.
Many people complain about lockups within hours, etc.
Since I've reported the NE2k clone I had no problems with, but others have reported having probs with it.
