And the de driver in FreeBSD 2.2.6 only seems to work with DEC Tulip 21140, 21141 and 21141A (not 21143 etc), but most manuafactuers are now using the 21143 So there go the two 10/100 NICs I used to reply on for use with FreeBSD 2.2.6. I've got dozens of 2.2.6 boxes deployed at geographically distant locations, so upgrading them all isn't an option; what I need is: 1. Best of all would be a supply of 21141A based cards (DEc Tulip chipset, but *not* the 21143). 2. Second best would be some other good 10/100 card which can be obtained reliably. Anyone? (Please cc me on the reply, as I may not have a chance to check the lists this week).
