But I think I now know how to make my pci expansion chassis work with OpenBSD, so unless I need a *lot* of slots, I will use separate NICs for internet and local nets. BTW, I noticed last week that the 7-slot Magma pci expansion chassis was selling for ~$70 on EBay. It cost over $1000 new when I bought mine years ago. > Or you want to have it run *now* without sacrificing the time to > buy a second NIC... ;-) > > >-- > >Lose, v., experience a loss, get rid of, "lose the weight" > >Loose, adj., not tight, let go, free, "loose clothing" > > I appreciate language education.
