Hi, I got lucky with this. The first USB-Ethernet device I tried worked straight away with no config changes. I ran xs-swapnics and that worked. So I have my main inbuilt NIC for LAN and an option USB interface for WAN. Great.
There is one warning message that comes up on boot to do with the USB device Kaweth: failed to set RX mode : -16 Do you know if that's something I should worry about?

I don't see any instructions, but I believe it "just works" if the USB device is supported by the kernel. It certainly wasn't that hard to get going last time I needed it, but I don't remember the details. _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
