Jeppe - I’m quite certain that Peter’s drivers work under Leopard Server as I was using them. I think the real problem you might be having is the Apple USB to Ethernet adapter. I don’t think it will work on anything other than a MacBook Air. You’ll likely have to go to one of the third party adapters.

I was just wondering… Will Peter Sichel’s USB Ethernet drivers work under leopard Server? I would like to use the USB to Ethernet adaptor from my MacBook Air as an extra interface on a Mac Mini funning OSX 10.5 server. If i plug the adaptor into my iMac i get an extra interface, but the same operation on the mini does absolutely nothing.

Worked on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11. Needed it since the ethernet port has one contact lifting with age. 900$ to replace the board or 29$ for adapter and free software driver. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB442Z/A</p>

We've updated our open source driver to recognize Apple's USB-to-Ethernet adaptor and have several reports of success getting this adaptor to work on other Macs.
