I finally got cable modem access here in the backwoods of west-central
PA.

I want to set up my Dell Latitude running 4.8 as a gateway doing PAT and
using ipfw.

I have 2, 3c589c cards and need one to get an address from the cable
company via DHCP.

The other nic will be configured as the gateway for my home net.

Problem one:
Card 2 is recognized, but I get this message "No free Configuration for
card 3Com corp' and no device id is assigned.
It doesn't matter which slot the card is in, it seems to only recognize
the first and give it device id ep0.
I removed the 'default' setting from pcic1 in the kernel config as
follows:

device          pcic0   at isa? irq 0 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000
        device          pcic1   at isa? irq 0 port 0x3e2 iomem 0xd4000

But it's still not recognized.  Any suggestions?

Problem 2 is how do I configure one nic for dhcp and the other for
static.  I can do the static config,
but how do I config the system to have static on card 1 and dhcp on card
2?

thanks

Ken
