Yeah that's what I am talking about. Teaming, bonding, load balancing,
etc. In Windows, HP has provided a nice GUI config tool, but I am not
seeing anything of the sort for Linux.
Here is the link to HP's page on the matter. The table at the bottom
suggests it is possible, they just don't say how...

Has anyone done this specifically with the HP/Compaq adapters?
Thanks,
Steve

Well, I am not exactly sure what you mean about "teaming." I use
multiple Intel GB NIC's with load balancing as one NIC. Is this what
you want? The cool thing with the Intel NIC's is that Intel provided
the software to do this and it only required minimal h4x0ring to make it
work the way I wanted it to.
