[SLUG] RH 8.0 Confoundations

I installed RH 8.0 on a full sized machine here at the office today.
I have using RH now for years, and never recall having these problems
I am seeing now.

What I see is network links that just run out of juice. I try to link to
a site, even internal and the browser (either of the ones that comes
with RH) may or may not load a partial page, then it just sets there
saying it is loading the page. I look at netstat and see that there
is a connection established but I may or may not get a page.

Same goes if I try to do a ftp. It is almost as though something is
going to sleep somewhere in the network parts of the machine.
This probably explains part of the slowness I saw when I was
trying to do vnc2swf on a laptop with RH 8 loaded on it.

I had network problems with the laptop also. When I try a FTP
it will many times just become non-responsive, I have to go to
a command line and get the PID and do a kill -9 on it.

Anyone see this sort of thing?

I have never had this much problems with network stuff it usually
just comes up and runs, but this one really sucks. I have been
running RH since 4.something.
