RE: RH9 and NIC Load Balancing

All you have to do is enable the module support (M) and then run:

make modules
make modules_install

This is only necessary IF you are using a custom kernel (built from
source). If not, you should just be able to do a:

modprobe bonding

please refer to the bonding.txt file noted in the previous e-mail.
