network question

[Jeff McCright]

I have excellent luck with the 3Com 3C905B-TX. I am not sure if RH5.2 recognizes it, but I know 
that RH6.0 and better does. Just a thought, but the hubs/switches that are being upgraded, If they 
are 10/100 Mbps, you really wouldn't have to replace the NIC unless you needed the increased Data 
Throughput. Just a thought.

Hi all,
Just a preemptive question.  The university is upgrading from 10Base to
100Base T connections.
One of our systems will be fine since it has a 10/100 card ( i assume it
will be fine).  I have to upgrade the card on one of the other systems,
it is a Gateway PS-60 running RH 5.2.  We use it as a host for our web
pages and other tasks that don't require a great deal of computing
power.  Any recommondations on what card to get and also any advice on
upgrading.

TIA,
Len
