Hi, I was recently asked to take over the sys admin of a linux server box. I immediately installed Debian 1.3.1 from the net instead of running the recently installed Redhat system. My idea was that since I use and like Debian it should be a piece-of-cake to get everything working. Well I was wrong - I cannot telnet outside etc. It seems the problem has to do with the PCI system. The network card is DEC 21000 (something) and I am using the tulip drivers.
Now my question is - does it mean that Debian pci drivers are older that those in Redhat? Why would Redhat work and not Debian? Is the differences that deep? I always thougth the differences were minor. /----------------------------------------------------------------------------/ Daniel J.
