We have a spare MacIIci with lots of RAM and HD space that I can use. I would like to run NetBSD on this machine. What is the current status of ethernet card support for NetBSD/Mac? Are there any cards that work? I would like to put this machine on the building network as a mail (smtp/pop3/imap), gopher (GN) and/or www (WN, Apache, or NCSA HTTPd) server. Is this going to be feasible? Networking via SLIP is not practical in this particular situation. Any help would be much appreciated!
