Greetings,

I'm in the process of installing WD8003E ethernet cards, and
I've managed to confuse myself about IP addresses.

I did-the-right-thing and wrote to NIC for an IP address,
but now that I'm ready to set the addresses on my WD8003s, I
find nothing but a sticker saying "Network Address 0000C0
5E9A18."  Where are my address jumpers?
			      
Is there a default address hardwired into the card?  Does
the tcp/ip driver automatically change it when the system
boots?  Did I buy cards that can only reside at one address?

What's up with that?
