The driver has been integrated into NetBSD and OpenBSD for a ^ while and supports ENI and Adaptec 155M cards. Adaptec is much better ^ in hardware design, at least, for the driver. >> does it work with 2.1.7 or 2.2 ? Yes, you can get the code from ftp://dworkin.wustl.edu/dist/bsd/bsdatm1.4.tar.gz or http://dworkin.wustl.edu/pub/chuck/ ^ ^ The driver currently supports only PVCs. No ATMARP nor multicast is ^ supported. >> what about SVC's ? No signaling is supported. If you want to use LANE or IPoverATM, this driver is not for you. But if you want to use ATM just as a high-speed point-to-point link, the driver works fine. Also, if you want to do low-level ATM research, the driver is simpler and easy to play with. --kj
