Re: Network Adapter?
It does seem like networking is something that people really want. I think that we should at least try something. Preferably implementing a cut down INET layer.

Well there seems to be a bit of interest, so I'll cobble a driver together this weekend and see what I can come up with. Davey

Just for the record, I'd rather see support for the 3c503 than ppp or slip, but unfortunatly I can't say I have either the time or knowledge at this point to be of any help, but if that changes in the near future I'll do what I can.

I have a 3c501 and a 3c503 that I wouldn't mind testing with... I'd love to see the support put in since this I'd like to eventually see an ELKS box sitting on an existing network as a fully functional net machine. Too bad I can't program to save my life or I'd really love to jump in and help out myself. JC.

I run DOS using the cwnryr (?) packet drivers to copy stuff to the floppy to move to ELKS. For I downloaded some code I found a couple of weeks ago but haven't had a chance to look at it yet - I only started looking at ELKS a few weeks ago and my wife thinks I spend too much time using computers as it is!

Since I've mangled the 3c503 driver to bits, I could re-create that code from scratch again if there was interest. The main reason I didn't bother was because people were more interested in plip/slip/ppp, than the 3c503, even when I offered to mail cards to those who were interested in the development. From memory, the only response I got was someone who wanted a card for his Linux box since he thought I was giving them away. Davey

They are no longer included due to various reasons including incompatable licenses. Currently teh only networking related files in the kenrel are experimental. Al
