We are running Redhat 4ES with xen 3.0.3, running 3 debian vm's

I noticed that all the eth interfaces of the vm's have TX packets dropped.
They grow non-stop.

I have included output from brctl show and an example of ifconfig of a named
vif. Is this impacting our network output from the vm's. We have a timeout
problem with a emailserver vm and maybe this is a reason?

Do you guys need some other output to give me some advice?

I can ping each vm perfectly, and have a 0% packet loss
--- vmdebian3.nollekens.be ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 9002ms

[root@redhat06 DebianSarge]# ifconfig vif-vmdebian3
