Anyone out there ever attempted to use Sun Quad Fast Ethernet (QFE) cards in Checkpoint Secure Platform boxen? If so I'd like to compare notes.
The Secure Platform Linux distribution does include a driver (sunhme), and the cards are detected by the installer, but attempting to use the interfaces yields anomalous behavior to say the least.
I'm hoping I can save a few $K by re-using QFE cards instead of buying Intel quad cards (known to work). I suspect the QFE driver is b0rked, but QFEs don't have physical MAC addresses and maybe I'm not passing MAC addresses to the driver early enough in the boot process.
TIA
