Well, with a EEPRO100, I'm still having problems.

Linux-2.0.30
Netatalk 1.4B + asun 17
eepro100 v0.35 10/11/97

ifconfig:
eth0 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:C9:60:4A:7B
          inet addr:128.249.25.177 Bcast:128.249.25.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
          RX packets:172759 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          TX packets:53637 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          Interrupt:15 Base address:0xff20

I still get nbprgstr errors after updating to latest eepro100 driver:

nbp_rgstr: Connection timed out
Can't register focus:Workstation@*

2 Notes: 1) At least with the old driver, atalkd was causing broadcast storms
which
really pissed off every in our department.
        2) TCP based AppleShare works beautifully.
