[K12OSN] ifconfig errors

[Robert Arkiletian]

Anyone know what would cause these errors in RX

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:07:E9:3F:F5:6C
          inet addr:192.168.0.254  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::207:e9ff:fe3f:f56c/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:34225847 errors:840978 dropped:840978 overruns:523 frame:0

          Base address:0x3040 Memory:feac0000-feae0000

To test the network I ran

 ping -c100 -A clientname

for all clients when the lab was emtpy. I got no packet losses at all
for any clients and the total time was the same approx. 20 sec for
all. In addition I was running iptraf in the background and i got no
"ip checksum errors". Should I try it again when the lab is full of
students or does anyone have another suggestion?
