Either card works fine if they are alone in the computer, but when they are both in during startup, only the first card is setup and the system indicates that there are no resources available for the second card. The startup messages look like this: May 24 08:42:35 nsy /kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 0 May 24 08:42:35 nsy /kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 1 May 24 08:42:40 nsy sshd[179]: Listener created on port 22.

(There are plenty of resources available, especially as the motherboard sound, lpt and com ports have all been disabled in system setup.) 2 - Once the second Ethernet card is working, how is it configured for TCP/IP? The lines used in the /etc/rc.conf file don't indicate how they can be applied to a specific Ethernet adapter (in this case it would be ep0 and ep1). Here are the relevant lines from /etc/rc.conf: pccard_ifconfig="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.0" pccard_enable="YES" pccardd_flags="-i 5 -i 11" pccard_mem="DEFAULT" Thank you for your help!
