Dropping of network connection on Linux system

[zoqix at yahoo.com (qx)]

Hi all,

I have 2 systems. 1 using linux and the other winnt.
Both systems are connected to Internet using ethernet connections.
I usually leave both of them on continuously for days.
However, I noticed that after a few days, my network connection on my linux system is dropped.
That is when I run ifconfig, the link is not shown.
I checked my winnt system and found that the connection is still intact.
May I know what's the problem on my linux system?
Thank you.
