That violates the ethernet spec... I have resolved that problem as of today. I found this was caused by the software I had been using. If a hardware issue remains, it is moot= =2E The bonding driver/utilities normally sets the bond address to the MAC of= the first NIC. But it also set the MAC of the slave (eth3) to the MAC of the = first NIC. This persists through reboots so that is how my MACs got duplicated.= Resetting the MAC corrected those problems and everything works fine now.= Marty B. --=20 An artist who is forced to work a specific schedule, is no longer an artist; he is just hired help.
