Crypto is not supported, and from what I've heard (here and on the OpenBSD website) it's not going to be. Intel won't give out docs without an NDA which makes it's rather hard to write a FreeBSD driver. The dual port card should work. BSDi sells them and I believe they are basicaly a PCI-PCI bridge with two NICs on it. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
