Multiple Net Cards

I want to install multiple 3COM 3C509s (ISA) in one system. Although I can
see these when I run the DOS setup utility provided by 3COM, I cannot get
the second driver running under QNX 4.25. I have verified that both cards
are on different IRQs and have different I/O port address mapping. Also,
they seem to pass all the test procedures in the setup.

The second driver simply tries to use the first card regardless of the
command line arguments supplied in the sysinit.

What and I doing wrong? Additionally, if I do get the second card
operational, how to I tell my software which card to use when sending and
receiving IP messages? Is this handled by Socket?

First Card IP address: 192.168.1.2
Second Card IP address 192.168.2.2

Thanks

Have you turned off Plug-n-play on the adapters? What are the command line
arguments that you are using to start the drivers?
