Someone else just told me to do the same thing.  Everytime after I would
restart the network I would get this...

"CROND[1262}: (root) CMD ( /sbin/nmmod -as)"

I turned Crond off and it seems to have corrected the problem.  Strange
right?  I have no clue why this might be killing my connectivity, but for
now its fixed.  Thanks!!

Kindest Regards,
Dan
