    Hello all once again. Still picking away at this project. Trying to transform 486 into multi-homed router/firewall.
    The 2 nics are identical dlink 220 isa cards.
    eth0: io=0x300 irq=10
    eth1: io=0x240 irq=3

    Through this list and googleing I have come up with the information below.
    Can anyone provide me with a direction i should go in setting up these two cards?
    Thanks
    James

    1:
    /etc/network/interfaces
    auto eth0
     iface eth0 inet dhcp
     name Ethernet LAN card
     auto eth1
     iface eth1 inet static
     address 10.0.0.1
     netmask 255.0.0.0
     network 10.0.0.0
     broadcast 10.255.255.255
     gateway my public address(eth0???):
    ==================

    2:
    in: /etc/modutils/aliases
    /sbin/modprobe io=0x300,0x240 ne

    ===============================
    alias eth0 ne
    alias eth1 ne
    options ne io=0x240,0x280 irq=11,10

     And eth0 and eth1 are activated in /etc/modules.

    also, will i need to specify the modules in lilo with an append referance?

    Using modconf will only allow me to load the "ne" module for one nic. When I try to load it again,
    it just wants to unload it.
