Hi all,

I'm looking for a good 4-port NIC for use in replacing a firewall that
joins four networks. Previously, I have done this with a 4U chassis
and a slew of single or dual port cards. In this case, I've got a 1U
chassis and one PCI slot.

I've heard speak of problems with the new D-Link 580TX 4 port cards,
with the recent thread on -isp.

I can get the Adaptec ANA-64044 card, but it isn't specifically listed
as being supported by sf(4), though the 62044 quad port adapter is
listed. Can anyone confirm or deny support for the ANA-64044?

Beyond that, Neither 3Com or Intel seem to make a 4-port card that any
of my suppliers carry.

Any recommendations?

- Ryan
