Hi

I'm seeing a lot of the error messages below on a dual Xeon 2.5 Ghz running 4.9-STABLE 
built on Wed Nov 26 2003.  The errors started when I moved a fairly busy database to this 
server.

Jan  4 17:56:50 king7 /kernel: em0: Link is up 100 Mbps Full Duplex
Jan  4 19:04:18 king7 /kernel: em0: Link is Down
Jan  4 19:04:20 king7 /kernel: em0: Link is up 100 Mbps Full Duplex
Jan  4 23:59:06 king7 /kernel: em0: Link is Down

Jan  5 01:04:48 king7 /kernel: em0: Link is Down
Jan  5 01:04:50 king7 /kernel: em0: Link is up 100 Mbps Full Duplex

I found menton of changing  '#define EM_REPORT_TX_EARLY 0' to '#define EM_REPORT_TX_EARLY 
1' in /usr/src/sys/dev/em/if_em.h but my if_em.h doesn't have this line

Anyone have any suggestions on how to remedy this?   Is this a known problem that would 
have been fixed since my system was compiled in November?

Thanks
