List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Geoff, If you have the (financial) resources I would recomend you look into getting a couple low cost pci nics. I have seen these as low as $15 a piece and they often even come with linux drivers (or use the ones already there). It is then as simple as putting the first one in and getting it to work, then adding an alias to have the second ome up. The only caveate is that the order may not be as orginially thought. (The first one you place in may be the second one enumerated and thus eth1 instead of eth0.) This is a minor detail easily corrected with the cables though. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net The mind is like a parachute; it works much better when open.
