At a chipset level (DEC 21143) yes...in the same way a Znyx card would work. It looks like the card also uses a DEC bridge chip too (not unussual on multi-port Ethernet cards) and FreeBSD will also cope fine with that too. HOWEVER...be aware that some BIOSes mess up the initialization of such beasties (PCI bridging and all). So, in short, it should work...but I've never tried it :-) Out of interest, how much do DLink knock these puppies out of? -marc ---------------------------------------------------------------- Marc Nicholas netSTOR Technologies, Inc. http://www.netstor.com "Fast, Expandable and Affordable Internet Caching Products" 1.877.464.4776 416.979.9000 fax: 416.979.8223 cell: 416.346.9255 On Wed, 16 Jun 1999, Dennis wrote: > > Is this board supported?
