First I would like to thank everyone who offered help with my previous e-mail.

I am still unable to get a third nic working tho I can get any two nics to work 
by
changing the order of the ether= statements passed to the kerenl by lilo.

Here is my dianotics so far:

kernel=2.2.13
arch=i486

I have tried changing irq's and ioports as well as differenet slots in the 
mother board
and just recently I replaced the new ne2k with an SMC-ultra with the same 
result.  It
seems that the kerenl is ignoring the third ether= argument entirely.  I 
checked the
MAX_LINKS which is #define MAX_LINKS 32.  

Both the ne2k driver and the SMC driver are statically compiled in and I have 
verified
that all the cards are in fact working correctly and on seperate irq's/ioports 
etc.  I
suspect I am missing a #define that needs to be tweeked...
