I will replace the cable, and report back. Btw, I need to check why but it looks as if an add on PCI ethernet card is having some IRQ issues. The server freezes for 4 seconds and works for 10 more, and so on. Unloading the module makes the problem go away. But maybe there is other problem at the bus. I wanted to make sure there is nothing too obvious from the software side before going on site to check. Thanks in advance Sebastian
