[Gllug] eth0 errors

[Simon Faulkner]

Hi All,

I'm having problems with Win98 hosts using a RH8 Samba box.  Sometimes 
its OK then it will seem to freeze and not work.  All seems well on the 
box but /sbin/ifconfig gives:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:40:95:31:05:AD
           inet addr:192.168.151.64  Bcast:192.168.151.255 
Mask:255.255.255.0
           UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
           RX packets:544324 errors:1692 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
           TX packets:682763 errors:16905 dropped:0 overruns:2 carrier:33810
           collisions:96742
           RX bytes:99197511 (94.6 Mb)  TX bytes:621743151 (592.9 Mb)

and that seems like a lot of errors?
(My other linux boxes at different sites have zero)

Any pointers as to what to try first?
