Is there a problem configuring two interfaces on a machine to belong to the same subnet? It's been a while since I messed with it last, but I remember getting arp errors when trying to do so. The machine came to me with the two interfaces using different subnets. Albert >The fact that the first two letters are the same >indicates that they're using the same driver. That's >not a problem.
