It really isn't THAT big a deal now that it has happened after every  
restart... The box is local, and I can reach the cables in the dark...  
I just start a ping from a local machine, and when it doesn't come  
back I flop the cables. Now that it has swapped back to my gigabit  
card being local, I might try locking it down though.

Thanks!
