 SYMPTOM:
 Customers may experience a variety of problems including not
 being able to use the network adapter card at all, or
 experience other LAN SERVER networking errors.

 PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
 Affected configurations:
 1. The HP 2585A PCI 10/100 Ethernet Adapter is installed.

 2. Any system capable of running multiple processors, such as
    Server 720, 520, and 320, running in Multi-processor mode.

 3. The Operating system is OS/2 version 2.11 SMP (Symmetrical
    Multi-Processing) and LAN SERVER 4.0.


 FIX:
 At this time there is no known fix.
 The current device driver HPFEND.OS2, dated 4/95 was tested
 and found unable to support multi-processor mode.  Device
 drivers released later than this date, may include updates to
 support MP (multi-processing).

 Customers who are running the configuration referenced above,
 in multiprocessor mode and experiencing problems, should
 contact HP (Hewlett-Packard) for additional information on
 later drivers.

 Note: Refer to RETAIN records H134555 and H134937 for additional

 This tip will be updated as additional information is made
 available.
