Be sure to use the UNDOCUMENTED onepacket switch on ifconfig if you're
using a 3c501. The symptoms of failing to do this are that bulk
transfers to systems running SunOS proceed exponentially slower.
The most I could ever transfer before onepacket'ing was 50K.
I cannot emphasize this strongly enough, so I won't bother. Just
remember this if you ever put a 3c501 in a SCO Xenix box, and maybe
Unix as well...
