I think your right with this.
The problem occurs with 3 different NIC at different slots (one built
in, two externals).

Until now, I found only people describing problem simalary to mine, but
I did not found a solved problem...

I set up my own server first and build this one exacly like my one
(including domain settings etc).
I have no problems here.
This made me thinking of a hardware problem as the source of the problem
first.
Since the problem occurs first, I tried to stress my server to produce
the same error - but with no success.
Yesterday, we tried to log the users behavoir.
I seems that the error occurs mostly if they want to save (Word-)
documents. I will track this down and hope IŽll find a solution.
Ciao
