Hallo,
I know it's not exactly the right place for this question, but here are so
many guru's so... I apologize and ask :
The problem occurs on an old DecStation 5000/133 under ULTRIX. But it
seems to be a hardware problem, so I think the system isn't important.
The system became slowlier and slowlier till it hung up.
So I invoke the hardware test utility and it says :
??FL:3/ni/ext-lb(3:(xmt[00000006,00000040] cable)) [KN02-BA]
This message says that's something wrong with the ethernet interface.
I checked all cables and I see activity on the network slot.
My question :
Does this message say that's something wrong within the ethernet interface
in the machine or is it possible, that there are problems with the
internet connectivity outside the machine ? (This machine is the only one
on this slot of our LAN)
By the way : For our general activities this old machine isn't very
important, but for historical or "nostalgic" reasons it would be very nice
if it would work again. It had worked for the last 4 years without any
problems and (nearly) without any maintenance.
Waiting for your good advice
