Hey Zaheer,
By any chance are you using tulip drivers for your dmfe pci network card ? if so then immd change it to plain dmfe ....
or if you using tulip for any other chipset then check the chipset and replace tulip drivers with apporpriate network chipset drivers,
The tulip driver has some bug, it gets konked off after few transmissions and hence at times you can see your box completely off the network and get a heavy packet loss ... error .. n stuff..
Do check on this ... it has nothing to do with RH 7.3 and the flames on the same.
