whoa, matt

don't go buy some more cards --
james, are those the same cards you brought to the saturday
network meeting a while back?

matt, i thought the next step was dhcp . . . 

did anyone try any of the nic cards james had at that meeting?
i didn't even get a chance to look at them . . . .

imho, matt's thread for setting up dhcp for roadrunner
and james' thread for 3c509 shouldn't be mixed, though
they seem to somewhat intermingle.

ok, bert
