Now *that* is a "hard" bandwidth limiter! 8{( Has some polite (since I
don't think he's getting paid for this) mail to Dennis helped?

You will save future headaches if you label the back of the cards. (fwiw:
I usually label one 'O' for "Outside the 'wall" and interface '0'. I
usually label the other 'I' for "Inside" and interface '1')
On ISA cards, I use the setup utility to set the card to match kernel
entries; slot order is independent. For PCI cards, I usually see it assign
the lower numbered (PCI-slot wise) card to interface '0' and successive
slots to successive cards.
