Does NetBSD 1.X support the Xircom External Ethernet Adaptor, or any parallel port ethernet adaptor? The T2200SX doesn't have a PCMCIA socket, so the only way (short of SLIP) to get TCP/IP is with an parallel port adaptor. If NetBSD doesn't support it, does anyone have any other ideas, e.g. another 386BSD variant, another source for the ethernet driver)? Thanks in advance. Steve Diamond diamond@netcom.com
