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,
