    Exclamation nic trouble

    Fairly new to Linux. I am setting up a firewall using ipcop on a 400mhz sys. It has a Compaq ethernet card and 3 com etherlink 111, my question is if bios recongnizes them are the configuered? Or is there more that I need to do? Never setup network before. ipcop finds both of them. Is there any way to make sure the are working short of loading another os and testing each card. Thanks in advance
    If its not enough info, just let me know

    It just means that they are physically connected to the main board.

    Did you check out the IPCOP documentation, mainly the "installation manual" and the "quick start guide" ?
