I read the FreeBSD FAQ and documentation that talks about a 4 port ethernet card with a DEC chip set, but I can't find anyone that will sell them, or match their model numbers with the ones on the support list. I know adaptec has bought cogent and has a four port card that will do 10/100 Adaptec ANA-6944A/TX and a ANA-6922A/TX. I know the cards are capable of full duplex 100Mb, and I will never be able to get a box to max out all 4 ports full duplex, but it doesn't have to. My questions: Can I use these cards? any comments? Any recommendations, horror stories, suggestions Thanks alot. Please cc me via e-mail. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Peer Data Electronics Technician I Golden West College Computer Services Center 15744 Goldenwest St. Huntington Beach, CA 92647 e-mail: mpeer@gwc.cccd.edu Voice: (714)892-7711 ext 55067 WWW: http://pioneer.gwc.cccd.edu FAX: (714)895-8980
