Failover NIC on Mandrake 8.1

I'm trying to setup two INTEL Pro 100 NICs to do an automatic failover on a system running Mandrake 8.1.

The only stuff I could find was this:

From oracle:

http://otn.oracle.com/tech/linux/open_source.html

Other than that there are general pointers like this:

http://linux-ha.org/

and

http://www.linas.org/linux/load.html

this site has some info towards the bottom.

I have heard that Intel has some software to do this with their NICs but I was unsuccessful in finding anything on Intels website.

Hi,

according to http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/hardware.php3 this nic is not supported .

Open your Mind and use Open Source software...
