Sounds like you may have more then one nic, or it THINKS you have
more than one nic. I realize you got a bunch of lines, but could yuo go
ahead and capture that and send it to me (OFF-LIST)?
Hmmm -- That machine doesn't even see the router, afaict. So I can't use
ssh nor scp, much less send myself an email with that machine and
read/forward it with this one -- let alone use my newsreader with it.
I can try to hand-copy, reading one monitor and typing into another. (The
problem machine has its own peripherals; it's not behind the KVM switch
with my others.) But it's apt to be less than accurate. I've been trying to
put the eth-messages.txt onto a floppy or a cd, and read that with this
machine; but I can't seem to follow my antiquated nose to a place hwere I
can do either.
grep eth /var/log/messages > eth-messages.txt
Then send that eth-messages.txt to me. Hopefully that might shed
some light. I have a meeting coming up shortly but I'll be around
afterwards and later this evening as well.
