https://hardware.redhat.com/list.cgi?version=4&internal_whiteboard=Compo... ipheral has no results
https://hardware.redhat.com/list.cgi?product=Red+Hat+Hardware+Certification&... ksearch=ethernet has a few results for RHEL2.x and one for RHEL4.x on IA64.
Where should I start on my quest to find gigabit ethernet cards for all our workstations?

Don't pick up Realtek ones, not the best choice; may work or may not. As said before Intel ones do the job ok.
Cheers.

I'm not sure if RHEL4 has support for the latest Intel Pro 1000 cards - though Intel cards are definitely recommended. Just make sure the kernel knows about the chipset. Buying cards one or two revisions behind the current model via ebay can also yield some nice savings. FreeBSD lists the supported chipsets in the man-page of the driver: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=em&apropos=0&sektion=4&...
I'm not sure if people at RedHat (or people writing drivers for the linux-kernel in general) actually know how to write a man-page - but I'm sure this information is somewhere in the kernel-documentation - or in the driver source... Do your workstations have PCIe or PCI-X slots?
cheers, Rainer
Will look more into this.
Do your workstations have PCIe or PCI-X slots?
We have all three vsrisnts in our midst.
PCI
PCI Express and
PCI-X
