Make sure the various ethernet extensions are there: for my 540C running 8.1 it's Apple BUilt-in Ethernet and Ethertalk Phase 2. My 6214, running 8.6 has got Apple BUilt-in Ethernet, Apple Ethernet LC and the three Dayna extensions, since it's a dayna 10/100 card. If yours is a third-party card you'll need the extensions. It almost sounds like you don't have Open Transport installed, which I would check. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
