Shayne,

My initial thoughts were "Tulip".

This site lists a Windows driver for the beast, calling it "tepcipb"
http://www.network-drivers.com/drivers/12/12875.htm

And here is some chatter about DEC 21x4x drivers and the 2.4 series Linux 
kernels.   Maybe a jumping-off point for you?

Oh... maybe you can compile the Tulip sources into the 2.2 tree.   Any 
reason to not move to 2.4?   I've been using 2.4 with Woody for quite some 
time, without ill events.

Cheers,
Denis
