I need to get a second ethernet card for my HP Proliant CentOS server,
to attach a LinkSys WRT54GL router to.

I see that there are many Realtek RTL8169S gigabit cards
going for a song on eBay.
Is anyone using one of these under CentOS?
Do they work OK?
(I used to have a couple of Realtek cards - not gigabit -
and they worked fine.)

Or does anyone have a strong recommendation for other cards?
Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.
