I am at a bit of a loss. Looking to repair a dos

cnc machine. I need to load some kind of packet driver,
so that the pc tcp

Another supporting
machine passes data to this machine to drive the machine.
Attached are some screenshots. Original card was a pci
etherexpress 100.
The packet driver used is in the screenshots attached.
I no longer have a intel card, is there a way to just
drop in any old pci
card and make it work with the tcp ip software?
I am trying to better understand, as i have not done much
work with packet
drivers. I will post back with some more info. Any help
much appriciated.
You'll need a packet driver for the new card.
Then "just" replace the drivers. And probably adapt some
config files.
I have used "ftp software" IP implementation for DOS
before. Long ago. Maybe I can dig out some documentation
for it.
I have a pick and place machine that runs Windows 95. I
added the package wftpd from the net. It allows me to ftp
(not sftp) into the machine and send files either way. It
is pretty klunky and old school, but does work. I used a
3Com 3C905 card, and I think the drivers were already
present on the OS.
