Ed,

The Network cards do show up in lspci.

will i have to do it for both cards?

Thanks,

For RHEL 4, you should use the nahant list, not redhat-list.

First off, does lspci show you the 2 onboard NICs?  You should see a
pair of Broadcom GigE NICs - at least my DL380 systems do with RHEL 3.
lspci is probably what the hardware browser uses.

configured yet.
