I don't know if the driver is included in Windows 2K3 but it should be easy to find if not. I would try using 'e1000' as the device, that's probably how it was named and it's not yet included in the help text. > If there is already a wiki then can you please point me to it. > > Also I had a suggestion.

The VMGL/KVM mini-HOWTO mentions the massive drop in performance using usermode networking, but I think it would be useful to have it in the main networking page also. I would say go ahead, that's what wikis are for =). Jorge ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
