4.8.917 is newer than what is on mellanox.com, as it fixed an OFED IP
multicast performance issue.

	Thanks...  looks like the latest fw Cisco has for it (dlgl
branded) is 4.8.917.  Hopefully, that's not behind the curve for
Win2008.
	thx-

		For 2008 you can use WinIB-ND Beta that support
InfiniHost III Ex and InfiniHost III Lx. You can find latest FW on
Mellanox web. Send me a note if you need more help.

		Yep... I didn't see any WinOF support there.  I think
WinIB has a beta that's workable on it though.

			As far as I know, support for Infiniband on
Windows 2008 is lacking.  The WinOF
			drivers will not build as 2008 drivers, and
though you can load 2003 drivers on
			2008, I don't think that this works for the
WinOF stack.
			
			Someone please correct me if I'm off here.
