I have a new Proliant 3000 500MHz and have just installed Intranetware 4.11 on it. When I reboot the server I get a message during the loading of the NIC (N100.Lan off the smartstart 4.6) that says &quot;WARNING: Changing the RXINTDELAY setting may affect performance.&quot;<br>
<br>
What does this mean and how can I fix it?
 
I've got the same thing on a proliant 4000. have you managed to sort it?<br><br>regards<br>Martin
 
I get the same message.&nbsp;&nbsp;Does anyone know what this message means?
 
THis sounds like the driver is wanting to change the transmission interrupt delay.&nbsp;&nbsp;In most cases this will occur if and only if you have a slow connection.&nbsp;&nbsp;In this case, it almost appears to be caused by the driver.&nbsp;&nbsp;I will look into this a little further and see if there is some sort of resolution. For the most part, according to the Novell web site, it is an informational message only.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br> <p>Mark C.

If you can, try removing the existing NIC and installing one or more different makes - perhaps one 3Com and one Intel - get &quot;server grade&quot; NICs, PCI bus of course.<br>If Compaq insists on an Eisa config file for PCI-bus NICs (a creepy way of keeping other brand NICs out of their servers), send it back and get another brand! <p>Fred Wagner<br><a href=mailto:frwagne@ci.long-beach.ca.us>frwagne@ci.long-beach.ca.us</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
