I would like to apologize for reposting, but I was contacted by a certain
gentleman who claimed he knew the solution to this problem, but he never left
his name or number on my answering machine, so I am still lost.  If you are
reading this,could you please send me your phone number?

For the rest of you, the problem is:  We have an A/UX Mac II with one EtherTalk
board.  At boot time the A/UX says that there are two EtherTalk cards installed.
ae0 and ae1.

ae0 is initialized fine, but that is not the right card.  ae1 gives a ifconfig
error message.  When I try to ping or rlogin to other machines, I get a 'network
unreachable message'  or 'connect time out'.

Anyone know what the problem is?

Thank you.
