Compatible NICs for Solaris 9 (9/05) x86
Hi,
Please can someone recommend me a cheap PCI Network card for Solaris 9 (9/05) for an Intel based PC (x86).
I currently have a US Robotics NIC installed, but Solaris does not recognise it and its been too much hassle to find drivers for it etc, so have decided to purchase another NIC that Solaris will recognise straight away!
Any recommendations?
Cheers
Wajid
