I found a source for 10/100 baset enet cards that use either realtek 8139 or mpx en5038 chipsets. I know that the 8139 IS supported under linux, but I am not sure about the mpx en5038 (a grep on the net sources in 2.0.38 turned up nothing). Does anyone know if this chipset is supported? Maybe I can only accept the cards with the realtek.
Also I am planning to build a firewall machine for my lan as I have ordered dsl service. If I configure a machine with dual nic's do they have to be the same type, or can I just load two drivers into the kernel for say one ne2000 card, and one 3-com card? ===== Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or ..... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
