Network devices drop intermittently

Hi,

Well it seems that after about 30 -45 min the network interfaces go down for
about 5 minutes. Then they act as if nothing had happened. I cant ping them
or anything. I have a realtek 8139 and a DM9102 ethernet cards. I am using
2.2.14 and the ethernet drivers for both cards from that kernel. The only
service I have running on my ports is ssh2. I have dhcpd running and i
turned off apmd because I didnt need it. It never worked from the default
install of redhat 6.1 and the redhat 6.2 beta. I upgraded the kernel but to
no avail did it solve my problem. During the downtime, I run to the console
computer and it can go out and do normal internet browsing and things.
ifconfig is normal. When you are running an X session and or ssh2ing to it
it goes down after 30-45 min. The server has plenty of processor power and
memory to handle the tasks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can email me at lnrossi@ucla.edu
