I go Ayah! Please don't do that! The `attach' and `probe' commands in userconfig are experimental and only of use in a couple of really rare scenarios.. I am strongly considering taking them out, actually. All you should need to do is set the port and irq values correctly and make sure that the EtherExpress's shared memory option is also turned on (your DOS setup disk should allow you to inspect/tweak this if it turns out that it's not). You don't even need to `enable' it - it's currently enabled by default as you'll see if you do an `ls' in userconfig (-c). Jordan
