In relation to debugging my DNS lookup woes (see other posts!) I'm
going to buy a spare PCI ethernet card. Since my firewall machine is
tiny and quiet, it only has one PCI slot so I'd like to get a
multiport, ideally four port, card. Some time back people recommended
the Intel Pro multiport cards
OK Another take on this: I'm trying to debug why DNS lookups from a
Debian woody firewall machine have become slow over an ADSL link to
British Telecom's DNS servers (router and servers not changed lately).
I'm an amateur sysop but generally cope well but need some help
debugging this.

I have a small home network of two Debian stable machines and two
Windoze portables (boo hiss but my work and spouse's require that).
I'm hitting something that's puzzling me which is that DNS lookups
from the firewall machine are slow whether directly or from the
Windoze machines behind while DNS

Back on Debian-user for a bit with some questions. Quick vote of

Background: I want to use 802.11g networking at home, sadly it'll
