For any multihoming configuration you need to know which NIC is which. If the NIC are on different networks (which is almost always the case with a firewall) you need to be able to specify which NIC gets which IP address. On Fri, 31 Mar 2000, Juan Sanchez wrote: > If I wanted to set up a firewall

if they are PCI, yes. If they are ISA, you will need to configure them with the utilties provided by the manufacturer (usually from a DOS boot disk) first, then provide that info. Just curious why you care which one ends up eth0? charles On Thu, 30 Mar 2000, Juan Sanchez wrote: > For 2 ident

For 2 identical plug and play NIC's, do I leave the base addresses and IRQ's zeroed out and place eth0 closest to the power supply? Thanks, Juan > I wasn't asking how to do it, I was commenting that their statement about > need the driver compiled into the kernel to run two nics of the same kind

I wasn't asking how to do it, I was commenting that their statement about need the driver compiled into the kernel to run two nics of the same kind is not true. Anyway, allI did was simply put this in /etc/conf.modules, and it worked fine (pci nics) alias eth0 tulip alias eth1 tulip no reboot

I want to install a 2nd NIC (eth1) so I can use my cable modem but I can't get my system to recognize it. I know the NIC (3c515) is good since 1) I've been using it in my other system and 2) I do see traffic getting to it. However, I can't get the driver to install: /sbin/insmod 3c515 /lib/modul
