Your rc.conf should look like this: ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet x.y.z.y netmask 255.255.255.255" and not ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet x.y.z.y netmask 255.255.255.248" Is that correct?

If you're able to SSH from *another* box, that's a good sign. And as for pinging, where are you trying to ping from -- the box with de2, or another box entirely? Also, can you show the output of "ifconfig de2"?
