<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> This
is a little off topic, but I need some help. I'm experiencing some packet
loss on an internal network at one of our remote locations. I don't understand
why, It's network wide, if I try to ping a windows server from a local
desktop, I'll loose between 6-19% of the packets, If I ping one server
from another, or desktop to desktop, I get packet loss, so bad it's affecting
the performance of the network to the point where DNS lookups fail and
sites can't be reached. I thought it was the network switch there, but
I had him replace it with a new one, (different brand) same problem. Is
there anything that may be causing this? I'm looking for thoughts at the
moment. Basically it's windows XP clients doing DHCP to a Linux box running
samba as a file server, and the a Windows 2003 server as their application
system.</font>
