I believe some people here may have experience developing device drivers for the following Ethernet adapter cards: 1. Acer 5220 2. AST-Ethernet Adapter 3. DTK Ethernet LAN card 4. Earthnet-Ie 5. G/Ethernet AT 6. IMC Networks PCnic 7. Localnet D-Link 8. Novell NNE1000 9. 3C501 EtherLink card 10. 3C503 EtherLink II 11. 3C505 EtherLink Plus 12. Tiara LanCard E 13. Univation LifeLink If you do, please send me you mailing address as I would like to consult you on issues of interfacing with these cards. BP

Univation LifeLink With the possible exception of the "Earthnet-Ie" and the AST card, all of the above boards have Packet Drivers. Some are in the Clarkson collection, some (Gateway, Univation, IMC, Acer, Tiara) are only available from the board manufacturer. IMHO, you'd be a *lot* better off writing to either the Packet Driver spec (available from vax.ftp.com in pub/packet-d.ascii) or the NDIS spec (same machine, pub/ndis-mac.v101.txt, which all the drivers I've seen so far conform to or pub/ndis-mac.v201.txt, for a revision with more features) than doing 10 drivers of your own (several of the above cards are clones of the original Nat Semi DP839EB demo board, and could be covered by one software driver with a little extra effort).
