I'm the jack-of-all-trades for the SRI-Montana office, and we just hired
another person so we're now out of serial lines on our modem bank (we
have 4 in use now).  So, that means I got to get one of the multi-serial
solutions everyone has talked about in the past.

What cards are supported under FreeBSD 2.1.7?  I don't want to upgrade
the box because it's been heavily tweaked for local configuration, and I
don't have the time nor the desire to beta-test 2.2 on a box that has
6-9 month uptimes.

Also, do I need lots of interrupts?  I would have 4 free available (from
the existing 4 ports), but I'm unsure if you need an interrupt/port
(which seems bogus).  Any ISPs willing to part with a 8-port board
cheaply? *grin*
