The most important thing here is of cause the transfer speed. So I have a few questions to you BSD users: - What speed can I expect for an 486DX-66 with a LocalBus ethernet card? - Which cards are supported and which one to use? - How about stability? (- Is RFS supported? At the sametime as NFS (on a another card) ?) If there is an FAQ please point me to it. I don't expect the speed to be expected to be in the FAQ, so please answer my first question. Thanks, -- Koen
