OK good news:

dma1 at sbus0 slot 2 offset 0x200000: rev 2
esp1 at dma1 slot 0x2 offset 0x400000 pri 5: ESP200, 40MHz, SCSI ID 7
scsibus1 at esp1: 8 targets
ledma1 at sbus0 slot 2 offset 0x200010: rev 2
le1 at ledma1 slot 0x2 offset 0x600000 pri 7: address 08:00:20:88:38:f6
le1: 8 receive buffers, 2 transmit buffers

I mv'ed my /etc/ifconfig.le0 to /etc/ifconfig.le1 and rebooted, it
works although:

ifconfig le1
le1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        media: autoselect (10base5/AUI) status: active
        inet 195.110.64.201 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 195.110.64.255

[I'm using 10BaseT!]  this doesn't seem to affect operation though...

You can get these cards from transtec [www.transtec.nl]
