I've used the 4-port Adaptec ANA* cards. No major complaints, but I have definately seen more anamolies than many years using fxp. I'd highly suggest sticking to Intel for anything high-throughput. As for the new Intel GB NICs... I'm glad to hear they're working well with FreeBSD (haven't tried 'em yet)... That's a lot more than I can currently say for Linux. ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
