Re: 3 identical NICS on 3 Networks - configurating confusion
Well after reading and finally realizing that "alias lance eth0" was a
bad mistake and testing things out by installing using "insmod lance
irq=5,4 io=0x300,0x320", I managed to get the three cards recogized.
After I put the three alias lines and one option line in
/etc/modutils/modconf [ and realized I couldn't leave a backup called
modconf.orig in the same directory], ran update-modules and rebooted
all three NICs are being recognized.
alias eth0 lance
alias eth1 lance
alias eth2 lance
options lance irq=5,4,3 io=0x300,0x320,0x360
Now eth0, and eth1 come up OK. Now I need to make pump work - it seems
to fail almost instantly. As though it was missing some parameters and
didn't even send a packet out on the network. Then I need to set up
Squid on the machine, while the machine runs a tiny very secure little
private network for a few machines off of the eth2 interface that goes
out through the cable modem on eth1, while providing access to a local
web server on eth0.
