New Network Card Unable to take static IP assigned to previous faulty Card

Sanisto — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 14:21:11 +0000

I have a server that had static IP configured, what happened is that the Network Card got faulty and had to be replaced. so I bought a new network card and replaced the faulty one, now when I try and configure the IP address on the new card I get an error message saying that the IP address has been assigned to another network card. I then installed the faulty network card again and configured it to obtain its IP address from DHCP and then rebooted the server but it still gives me the same error message whenever I try to enter the static IP on the new Network Card.

Need a network card for a MAC G3

Flame — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 05:30:01 +0000

Hey, any MAC people out there?

I have a client who has an ancient MAC G3 running OS 8.5. I have limited experience with Apple hardware, and have handled the diagnostic over the phone so far. From what I am able to determine the Ethernet port on the computer has died (Cables work on another system, as does the port on the switch). The dead port seems to be an integrated port on the mother board. I’m looking for a replacement card (I believe that PCI cards will fit in the computer) but I’m not sure what type will work. What about drivers?
Thanks!
