Hi Mathias,

I'm having a terrific problem. I don't know how to configure rtnet to use more 
devices than one. In the rtnet.conf file I have the parameters:

RT_DRIVER="rt_eepro100"
RT_DRIVER_OPTIONS="cards=1,0,0,0"

# IP address and netmask of this station
#   The TDMA_CONFIG file overrides these parameters for masters and backup
#   masters. Leave blank if you do not use IP addresses or if this station is
#   intended to retrieve its IP from the master based on its MAC address.
IPADDR="10.0.0.1"
NETMASK=""

so, what do I have to write to configure two interfaces (two network cards)?

Regards,

Leo
