as long as they are compatible design it's usually a question of small magic numbers table being filled up and then they just work. the multi-port cards might be of more challangle depending on how they are design. in case it's just a bridge and four devices behind it supposedly it's the same amount of work -- fill out small table. cu -- paranoic mickey (my employers have changed but, the name has remained)
