Token-Ring mini-HOWTO

v4.3, 29 March 2000


This howto is designed to help you get up and running using a Token Ring adaptor to access the network. Generally speaking Section 3 will tell you which driver you need based on the adaptor card you have and Section 8 will tell you how to get it working with your distribution.

Special Thanks

to Mark Swanson, Peter De Schrijver, David Morris, Paul Norton and everyone else I may have missed who put in their time to write and maintain this driver. Also to packrat for his support of the linux-tr listserv.

Special Thanks

to Mike Eckhoff the originator of this HOWTO!

Extra Special Thanks

to Jen, Mom, and Dad.
