What PCI and ISA cards do you have in the system? What other devices do you have attached? You could easily remove a modem or sound card to free up resources. You shouldn't need devices in a PC/ Server in this role anyway. It is most likely however that you must use a DOS boot disk and the utility disk that came with the NICs to change system resource usage. A PCI NIC will normally default to IRQ 10 and I/O add. 300h even though they are supposed to be plug and play. So you remove one card, Boot to DOS and run the config utility for the NIC and change it to manual config from Plug and Pray. Leave the other one at Plug and Play. Brian Kelsay ----- Original Message ----- From: Jose Sanchez Hi Everyone: I would like to set an Apache server to host my company's local website. I've always had many problems installing two NICs on a Linux machine. Somehow I get a conflict error with the second NIC. I believe that the system I'm using has too many shared devices. Is there a good old system I can buy or is there an specific board I need to use with Linux?
