ok, well, I came across an SMC 10/100 EZNET PCI NIC card. It says it works with linux and is SCO compatible. I plugged it in and no go. Can someone please explain to me how I would set this thing up to get me on the net with Free BSD 4?

Your best bet is to get an Intel EtherExpress/Pro 100(B/+) (fxp) or 3Com 3c905B (xl). These are some high quality nic's and very supported. If you are on a budget you might want to look at a SMC Epic (tx). Thanks, Matt Ayres On Sun, 20 Aug 2000, Phiber wrote: > > Hi, I recently put freeBSD on an old p166 with 16 megs of ram.
