multiple nics





lists,

just curious to know how two network cards in servers work IE: in the
configuration like freshmeat.net...


VA Linux FullOn 2x2
Single Pentium III 600 (256kb cache)
1GB RAM
10,000RPM 9GB SCA HDD
2 Intel EtherExpress Pro Fast Ethernet Cards ***

would they be on separate IP addresses or the same one?  plugged into the same
hub/switch? i guess it is just basic redundancy...? this kind of thing interests
me

i know how they work in a firewall config though, eg internal & external
networks

stupid question?

cheers jamesmc
