what is "gotnothingcount"? 1

[rthomas5]

Im running netware 3.12 and using an encore enl-832 tx+ 10/100 nic card. When I goto Lan/Wan driver information in monitor I can scroll down and there is this counter called "gotnothingcount" and the counter is moving up pretty fast. In one hour it has hit 35000. Iv tried to look it up and see what it actually means but havent found anything. Can anyone tell me what this means?
About every 6 days the network gets slow and after I reboot the server everything is fine for another 6 days, so
what im trying to do is find whats causing that and ran across the "gotnothingcount" and thought that could be it.
Iv changed out the nic and the hub and it didnt change anything.
what does "gotnothingcount" mean?
Thanks in advance

Found this on Novell's web site. Don't think it is your problem though.

Thanks for the url! That page has some great info.
I put a 3com nic into the server and it hasnt slowed up
yet (knock on wood). Its been running a month with no reboots. Big improvement from 6 days.
Thanks
