Network drop out problem

[Brad Douglas]

Found the problem.  Someone had set up a Maxtor network storage device on
the same IP addr I was getting through DHCP.

 

Many thanks to those who responded.

>Yesterday I installed FC4 on a HP ML110 proliant server.  The plan is to
use it as out file server, so I've got samba running on it, along with vnc.

every now and then _all_ the network connections to my >laptop (running XP)
disappear and can not reconnect for a few seconds: ssh, samba, vnc -
everything.  A few seconds later everything is fine again (till the next
time).  The weirdest thing is that I don't see any disruption pinging the
box.

obviously wrong.

diagnose the cause I'd be very grateful.

 

>Thanks,
