Hi folks,
On my HP computer, Redhat has this listed as its NIC:
Ethernet controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] 79c970 \
[PCnet 5778-LANCE] (rev 25)
In the KERNEL configuation files I grep'd the following
re the AMD NIC:
device pcn # AMD Am79C79x PCI 10/100 NICs
In the new DNS server I'm building, is the following ifconfig
line correct for the first AMD NIC:
ifconfig_pcn0="inet 216.231.43.140 netmask 255.255.255.0"
(To get my net link working is most important, but there are
webserver and mailserver issues too. It'd be great to just
switch cables and have everything Just-Work {TM}, but that
seems unlikely!!!)
thanks for any insights,
gary
