Hi Rasmus,
Someone just wrote me and said i am mistaken. Well I think not. For the
proof can be seen at:

http://www.crosswind.net/~lnb/shg2/shg2.html

I was in the middle of writing a short doc on console redirection with
our (http://www.FreeBSDsystems.com/servers_5240.html) iNET5240.

Take a look on my personal site and you will most definetly see the em
(Intel Pro/1000) NiC.

Regards,
Lanny
