Sorry, this is my Windows file server with a BS email client (Incredimail) on it, which HTML's everything, and I cant stop it, so I try to keep posts to a minimum.
 
Debian (last time I played with it) did neat things like...
 
modprobe rtl8139
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1
 
I was shown this by an American IRCd operator, which help ever so greatly...  Might help you too?

Subject: RE: Driver for Dick Smith PCMCIA NIC?
 
Egad, what a process. I've definately decided that you're right, the Woody
driver disks are no good to me so it's either Redhat or following this
webpage. I might have a crack at the web page but I'm not sure I have the
patience right now ;-)
 
Thanks to all for your help,
Michael.
