These are the boot messages for the two network cards:
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: 3c59x.c:v0.99L 5/28/99 Donald Becker
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: eth0: 3Com 3c900 Boomerang 10Mbps
Combo at 0x6800, 00:10:4b:49:6c:ef, IRQ 10
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: 8K word-wide RAM 3:5 Rx:Tx split,
autoselect/10baseT interface.
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: Enabling bus-master transmits and
whole-frame receives.
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: eth1: 3Com 3c900 Boomerang 10Mbps
Combo at 0x6c00, 00:60:08:a4:8b:67, IRQ 9
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: 8K word-wide RAM 3:5 Rx:Tx split,
autoselect/10baseT interface.
May 9 13:58:28 webserver02-gr kernel: Enabling bus-master transmits and
whole-frame receives.
eth1 is connected to the internet.
I don't think it's a problem with the network card(s) because FTP and Web
transfers of very large files work without any problems.

Exactly the same as in the LWQ document, so I won't post them here.
Additionally the pop3d-supervise scripts Rick posted in the last message.

I have nearly the same configuration on a newer machine (PIII 800, 128 MB)
running RedHat 6.2 with Kernel 2.2.18 and - indeed - other network cards
(from Intel). I've no problems there.
Maybe I should upgrade the kernel to 2.2.18? Or change/update the network
card drivers?
Bye & thx,
Jens
