Gig.ethernet problem

[Bjorn Tore Paulen]

I am trying to connect my ProLiant server to a HP2626 1000BaseT-port. Both ends are set to Auto. I can't get a link; on 100BaseT there are no problems.

Any clue?

[Stephen Grimmer]

What proliant server? What nic is in the server? What nic driver are you running? What os?

[Olivier Drouin]

does the switch support gig connection ?

[Olivier Drouin]

oh...hp2626 should support it.
Try to force the speed on both end. I will always had problems with auto-negotiation

The server is a ProLiant DL320. I run RedHat 9.0 on it.
