Shad has been having similar problems with one of his adapters. He added a 5-second sleep before fetching the lease and it appears to have helped. I already have a 2-second sleep before running "cardmgr" to activate the PCMCIA devices, so something is definitely a little strange here. I am not sure what to make of it, or even how to debug it... Anyway, the next release (due in a few days) might work better for you. > eth0: flipped to 10baseT > info, No lease, failing.

The cardmgr utility insists on running a "network startup" script, but we have our own. I just forgot to make it executable. Fixed in next release. - Pat ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
