Hi, that didn't work but the card is a 3Com 3C509B so I tried 509 instead of
your ..501 and it worked!!!
Now when I do "ifconfig" it comes up with both interfaces!!

Now I can ping and all!!! Rejoice!!!

For some reason telnet does not seem to like the address yet but that maybe
a firewall issue???  I'll look into it further before getting back to this
list!

Thanks for everything,
Andoni.
