ASE 1.5 network problems

Hi!

We have two AlphaServer 1000A running DU 4.0D (all patches) and TC-ASE 1.5.
Both servers have two 10/100 mbit ethernet-interfaces. We use tu0 with 10
mbit,half-duplex as the heart-beat interface, tu1 with 100 mbit,full duplex
as the lan-interface. Both interfaces are configured in the /etc/rc.config
as described in the last mail from Dave Campbell, i.e.

NETDEV_0="tu0"
NETDEV_1="tu1"

If I disconnect the lan-cable of the active node no rearrangment
of the services occur. The former
active node generates error-messages about a network-failure the
other node generates error-messages about NFS problems (the active nodes
servers files from a raid via NFS). But both systems are not able to solve
the problem within max. 15 minutes. I have to reconnect the lan-cable
to solve the problem.

Shutting down the active node or switching off the power makes no
problems. The second node takes all jobs within a few seconds.

What is wrong here??

Thanks in advance!

Wolf
