It appears you are saying that your "server" machine has trouble receiving (no matter if it is acting as a server or a client), if I understand your statement of the problem.

You understand correctly ;-)

At this point, I would suspect hardware. Some things to try... 1) have you tried a different _client_ machine to send to the server? Are the results the same? If not, problem is on "server" machine's RCV port.

I tried all the easy things first (other cable, setting MTU etc) and then went for the hardware. Indeed it seems that the onboard NIC was at fault. Plugged in a NIC that I still had lying around, reconfigured and presto, We're in business. Thanks! (you too Ken) Cheers, Frits
