I have 386bsd installed in two machines, one with the 3C503 and the
other with the WD8003. Before I had two 3C503 and everything was fine
but now I can not communicate anymore. 

If I try to ping from the 3C503 to the WD 8003, the machine with the
WD8003 says: "reject ?????(some number)", I looked in the code and it
says something like it can communicate with 3C503 but not with some other
cards so I don't get it. Can anyone help ??

It seems the machine have different sized packages, is that true ??
How can I fix this ?

Thanks a lot,

Claudio. (csilva@cs.sunysb.edu)
