I posted an item earlier stating that I had written a AOS4.3 device driver 
for the Western Digital 8003e ethernet card - sorry guys, I should have 
said I am working on this driver.... Anyway its coming along well but I 
have run into a second problem.  When the new interface (wd0) is ifconfiged 
and the existing interface (un0) is ifconfiged down all TCP traffic dies,
and the only UDP traffic (NFS and NTP) is to/from machines listed in the
"/etc/hosts" file.  ICMP traffic is unaffected - in fact ping to/from this
machine works great.  I have traced this problem in the telnet code to the
"connect" call - this guy fails with a timeout error.  Any suggestions???

Thanks again.

Mike
