...> Thanks Mike for sharing this information. I need to check some things
on my end before anyone (you) spends anymore time on this. I'm running
part of our system on Cisco carrier current ethernet transponders (now
sold as Linksys PLS(?) 400 series). I need to check if the ones I'm
using support fast-ethernet - i think they do, also check on the sun
sbus card availability. And then I'll get back to you.
best,
john
Hi Mike, it looks like there is some confusion in the documentation as
to whether Sun Fastethernet 2.1 drivers will work ok with SunOs 4.1.4.
The official Sun printed install guide that comes with the 1996 CD states
that it will, most definately.

I will rely on the Sun Technotes which I found which say it will. It
also looks as if my Cisco buzz-boxes support fastethernet and that I can
buy an X1059A for a reasonable price.
Soooooo, if you are willing, I would very much like an ISO of your CD.
No hurry whatever, but do let me know what works best for you.
Thanks much for helping me with this.

ISO and PDF installation guide and other notes can be found at

Note that I will most likely not be able to keep the install guides and ISO
online forever, due to you-know-who, but hopefully should be OK for a while.

Regards,
Mike Spooner
