Here is what netstat -i showed:

Name Mtu Net/Dest Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Collis Queue
lo0 8232 loopback localhost 22528 0 22528 0 0   0

ge0   1500 web-0202.syrrx.com web-0202       38486557 8     54064267 0 
    0      0

Is 8 errors bad for ge0?

As far as netstat -s, there were no errors for any of the fields.
