I have a machine that I'm putting two NICs in, at the moment i have a Kingston
PCI 100 Mbps and an SMC Ultra ICA 10 Mbps. First off I'm having trouble bringing
up the interfaces. In /etc/donf.modules, I have

alias eth0 tulip
#options eth0 irq=10 io=0x400
alias eth1 smc-ultra
options smc-ultra irq=3 io=0x280

If I type "ifup eth0" it loads the SMC, if I type "ifup eth1" it says "Delaying
eht1 initialization." I don't seem to be seeing anything useful out of dmesg.
Anyhow the Kingston is going to be connected to a Cisco switch connecting 8
other PCs with fake IPs. The SMC is going to have a real IP and will be 
connected to the company network. This machine will be the entry point to a
cluster for users to start/stop/monitor jobs. Anyhow I've read the HOWTOs for
setting up multiple NICs and I'm not sure if I need to set up bridging but I
read that HOWTO also. Any pointers would be appreciated. I'm thinking I'll
have to find a PCI nic that won't load off the tulip driver before I can see
the interfaces come up correctly. Thanks.
