Hi,
I have two PPros in my network with SMC 8432T EtherPower cards in them.
They both load up properly and seem to work fine with the other computers,
but they don't talk to each other. I can't ping from one PPro to the
other, but I can go to another linux box or Sparc station and ping both
from there.
I was able to get them to talk to each other when I had a Slackware 3.0
kernel running them, but this failed when I installed the 2.0.0 kernel
and even with the 2.0.8 kernel.
Here is some information:
Card: SMC EtherPower 8432BT (PCI)
Machine: PPro with Intel Triton chipset and onboard NCR53c810 controller
