[ILUG] 3c905B-FX for firewall...

Thu Mar 22 10:45:45 GMT 2001

Has anyone experience using this fibre NIC? I was thinking of buying two
of them to use in a firewall. We have an optic fibre coming into our
groups superstack switch--and my boss is insisting that we are using
NIS/NFS on this network (there is no way in hell my machine is going to
be running NIS on an open network!).
Does anyone know of a better buy, taking into account that 3c905B-FX's
are ~#200 a pop? I haven't been able to find a card that has 2
interfaces on the one card.

cheers,
