What are your issues with logging/IDS?
What Ethernet card(s) are you using and what are you using
it for (internal/external) ?
Any shared interrupts / interrupt routing issues?
What is your bandwidth?
Can you send the dmesg?
Just curious - I would have thought a Via EDEN 500 would be
more than enough - even with some logging.
Thanks
