Hello All,

Is there any difference between the use of an ANA-6944 and an ANA-6940
in a Linux Beowulf cluster of four Pentium II's? There is a bit of
networking terminology I am not familiar with - 100BASE-T4 and
100BASE-TX: is one of these standards preferred for single port "normal"
fast ethernet cards?

Currently, I want to use only one four-port card, and later, if the
networking is a bottleneck, buy additional four-ports.

Many thanks for any information,

Kevin Williams
