Hi All;

So okay, I think I'll take a shot at learning to write some device 
drivers. across platforms. from scratch. including freebsd.

Can anyone point me to a public source for the " Network Driver
Interface Specification" ( microsoft , 3com)"?

I realize that this may not be the place to ask, but the hardware
guru who  might help me with this suggested looking at this specification
along with  freebsd sources , and apple macintosh device driver docs.

Thanks in advance. Please reply to rsw@crl.com.
