I think that you are on to something.  That would explain the errors
showing up in ifconfig:

RX packets:49595 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:61048 errors:41 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:41

My box is 100/Full Duplex.  If the Linksys is 100/Half Duplex, receive
packets will arrive without errors, but transmit packets may or may not
hit the Linksys at the right time and result in errors, correct?

Next chance I get, I will change the server's link speed and see what
happens.  If this is the problem, I would find it to be quite odd
because the XP machine that I used for testing is also 100/Full, so why
wouldn't have it been affected?  Furthermore, since I also tried putting
a 10/100 autosensing switch between the server and the Linksys to check
for speed/duplex problems, why would the server still be having trouble?
