My recommendation is to give the ENI driver a try, and if it also has a problem I or someone else can take a look at it. > Is anyone still using ATM under FreeBSD?

The "en" driver is a lot simpler, since it is intended for one card family (ENI, Adaptec, SMC), and may be more straightforward if you only want to use a small number of PVCs. The HARP stack is really the way to go if you want to use other cards or SVCs. -Richard ------------------------------------------- Richard Hodges | Matriplex, inc. | 769 Basque Way rh@matriplex.com | Carson City, NV 89706 775-886-6477 | www.matriplex.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-atm" in the body of the message
