Tom, Here's what's weird. The server came with one nic (the box is a Del Vostro). I added the second. Now, only the second works, and only as eth0. And, when it works as eth0, I have an internet connection. I tried installing two new nics, but only one shows up.
I would imagine that I don't have the drivers for the first (original) one. Does that make any sense? If so, what could I do? Thanks.
