well, it just so happens I don't. (The 4-port card cost me $0). Some
day the file servers will have Gigabit, and so
Google "bonding linux". Basically at the ethernet level you make eth[0-3] =
bond0. You'll then have the bandwidth of all the nics as one nic. Your
switch might need some extra setup - but this is the best way to go.

So you've got 5 interfaces?
Once you've bonded interfaces together the unde

Greetings all. I've just acquired a 4-port network card, and I
