I have been advised to look at http://cvstrac.pfsense.com/chngview?
cn=4643
But, I am not using pfSense. Just 6.0 release.
I have also looked at http://www.znyx.com/support/drivers/
ZX412_drivers.htm
But these drivers don't work for me. If they can be made to work,
could they be built into the next release or adapt the existing drivers?
Typically, I would say why bother with such old equipment but there
are a lot of companies trying to breath new life into these old
firewalls.
