Hi,
I have a Netware 5.1 server with two Intel Pro 100+ Dual Port adapters, which I'm trying to connect via Fast Etherchannel to a Cisco 6509 switch.
My problem is, even though the Etherchannel configuration appears to be correct on both the server and the switch, the server won't establish a connection at boot time, even though the switch says all four ports are connected.
If I disable three of the four ports at the switch, the server will immediately connect. Then, I can re-enable the ports and everything works fine. Obviously, I'd rather not have to do this every time I need to reboot the server.
Has anybody any experience of using Netware with FEC? Is there something obvious that I'm missing out here?
