ifconfig showing memory code and ip checksum error
 

HI all

i'm seeing the memory code as showed below whereby it is not seen in other machines. Is it indicating any h/w error? Also, when i use iptraf to do checking, therei s a lot ip checksum error....can anyone tell me what problem is it? The machine did hung before this but nothing abnormal found except below symptom....The machine is running fine after rebooted for 1 week but the error below keep showing....

server1> sudo /sbin/ifconfig

The "Memory:c8000000-c8011100" line isn't an error, just what memory segment is in use. Checksum errors point to problems but Linux' network stack deals well with those. Could you narrow errors down to a or any set of remote addresses?

Thanks for reply....so it means that the network card on the machine itself should be fine, right? But why i didn;t see the memory code on the network card on others machine? Anything configured to showed this?

Dunno. Post card specs, output, kernel modules in use and maybe a pattern might emerge...
