Our console has on a couple of occasions reported the following error:
"Lance has lost TXON 63"
What does this mean? Everything still seems to be working fine afterwards,
but we're that this might be leading up to something major. Any ideas?

It means that, due to driver bugs, traffic, weird network conditions, etc., your LANCE ethernet chip found its TRANSMIT off. Its response is to reset itself, re-enable itself, and tell you it did it. I'd worry about hundreds of these a day; "a couple of occasions" is no problem at all. -- ROGER B.A. KLORESE MIPS Computer Systems, Inc. phone: +1 408 720-2939 MS 4-02 950 DeGuigne Dr. Sunnyvale, CA 94086 voicemail: +1 408 524-7421 rogerk@mips.COM {ames,decwrl,pyramid}!mips!rogerk "I'm the NLA" "Maybe this world is another planet's hell." -- Aldous Huxley
