I have decided to add an ethernet card, to my PCI bus based Pentium. So I can access a network that is hooked to the internet via a T3 line. Looking through Jordan's picks it looks like he suggests the SMC EtherPower Ethernet card, based on DEC's DC21041 controller chip. But in the list of kernel line I can only find reference to DEC's DC21040 PCI Ethernet adapter. Is this still the best PCI Ethernet adapter for 10baseT? Is one of these names in these lists a typo? Should I just use the:" device de0 " command string? Anyone who can answer any of these questions I would appreciate a response. Also anyone who can suggest a "maxusers" number that would be suitable for a fair to heavy traffic internet server would also be much appreciated. Thank you, Derek Ruth Three Loop Nine, Inc. lupa@netoutfit.com
