please use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for MNF questions ... 

But let's go back to those sheep ...

simply edit, by hand the /var/lib/naat/configuration file and add the
fith card variables.

For example, if you see Eth3IP= than also add an extra line called Eth4IP=
and so on

Hi Phil,
   I don't know from personal experience but unless your network cards
or computer bios support IRQ sharing you may have run out of available
IRQ's ?
The eaiest way to check this would be to remove another device that is using 
an IRQ and see if that helps?

[Cooker-firewall] Does MNF support 5 network cards?

2003-07-04 Thread Phil Lavigna
Hi,

  I was wondering if MNF (with all current software updates applied) 
supports the use of a fifth network card. I have four cards configured 
and working properly, but attempts to configure an additional card have 
failed.

  I have tried four different brands of cards (two of which use the 
common 'tulip' driver) in both of the remaining PCI slots, but a fifth 
card is not detected automatically by MNF, nor when I try to manually 
configure it with the web-based front end.

  Thank you in advance for any help.

Bye,
Phil
