Henry,

Yeah it is printed on dmesg about a mile part!  Also the onboard ethernet
doesn't display it's MAC address on boot.  Or  at least now the way I have
it configed.  No big deal, becaiuse a netstat -i listed both interfaces as
exsisting.

I've got IP-NAT running with a cable modem, but it is awful slow with a
single LAN computer using it.  I've got the cable modem linked to the
NuBus card and the onboard linked to the LAN.  The client I'm testing with
is NT workstation.

Anyone done any benchmarks with IP-NAT?  I assume that it is a bit slower
that a straight up connection, but should be 90% slower thatn the bandwidth
avaiable?

Thanks
keith
