Any suggestions? I don't really know about this one but I don't any changes are needed in your kernel config. You must have the right driver compiled in as it recognizes one card. If the cards aren't plug-n-play, are you sure both cards are set up to use different interrupts and memory areas? Are both cards seen in your dmesg output? > Problem 2 is how do I configure one nic for dhcp and the other for > static.

You use rc.conf to specify settings for each NIC and dhclient will get setup info from a DHCP server. HTH, Drew
