If so, why not? I'm not very familiar with the hardware. I installed it once at a customer's site a few years ago. I remember fighting with irq's to get it to work. Since the customer's machine has been upgraded, I pulled the card, since no one else had a use for it. We were using it for communications to different hardware out on site (fire alarm, access control, HVAC gateway). Since the load was split between several machines in the upgrade, it's no longer needed. I kept it in the hopes of tying in to our existing modem pool and setting up a second terminial server eventually. -Otter > -- > Jeroen Ruigrok vd Werven/Asmodai asmodai@[wxs.nl|bart.nl|freebsd.org] > Documentation nutter/C-rated Coder BSD: Technical excellence at its best > The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project <http://home.wxs.nl/~asmodai>; > Here is, I believe, the fundamental rule of all being: Life is not at > all like this.
