Subjectno carrier when using forcedeth on MSI K8N Neo4-F
I am trying to connect two identical MSI K8N Neo4-F servers with NVIDIA 
nForce4 gigabit Lan ports. When the two ports are connected together via
a crossover cable, neither computer is able to detect a carrier on the
Lan ports and are not able to communicate. When either of the nForce4
gigabit port is connected to a Lan port on another computer with a
different Lan hardware or to a port on a switch the forcedeth drivers
detect a carrier and are able to communicate.

It appears that the nForce4 Gigabit ports are not generating a carrier.
Does the nForce4 not provide standard ethernet ports? If they are
standard ethernet ports, how do I tell forcedeth to generate a carrier?
Also how do I get forcedeth to run at a Gigabit?

Thanks for any help,

Best regards,
