Good point Eric - I believe that happened in the minihub loopback 
situation I described. While that would be evidence that a network 
problem exists, actually testing the cables will do a better job of 
convincing everyone that the problem is the wiring plant (and not, for 
example, the fact that Jim installed Linux on the network, which I could 
see some claiming...).
