My config: NetBSD 0.8, no additional patches, just recompiled kernel for we-interface and nfs server/client support. Hardware: 80486DX/33 SIS-Chipset 16 MB RAM Adaptec 1542B + 1GB Fujitsu SMC EtherCard PLUS Elite 16 (WD 8013 compatible) DOS PC: 80386/40 Forex-Chipset 4 MB RAM MFM-Controller + 40 MB Seagate SMC EtherCard PLUS Elite 16 On the DOS-PC I use the direct support for WD8003 cards with PC NFS. Might there be any problem with access-rights to the ethernet interface whatsoever? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lars Grupe UID lunde <lunde@cs.tu-berlin.de> Technische Universitaet Berlin -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
