Are there any token ring network cards available that run nice and stable
under FreeBSD?

I have a client with 20 odd PCs all running token ring, they want to get
onto the 'net.  The only options are buying a token ring capable router
(expensive) or using a FreeBSD machine running as the router, cache, mail
etc server.

Also, in the above scenario... there is no reason why this same machine
could act as a IP filter between the serial device and the token ring
card?

Regards and Salutations,

Mikel
