I need help with setting up a LAN. I have a BSD2.2.7 box, an NT Server 4 box and a 486Notebook,running BSD2.2.7. I have SN2000 PCI cards in the two big boxes and an SN2000 ISA in the notebook. I can connect the NT box and the Notebook through DOS but need to network the three. I need to set up addresses correctly. The router gives me hardware addresses on both BSD machinesbut I cannot figure out the needed connection addresses. Netstat on the big BSD box gives "localhostbelatrix.mway localhostbelatrix.mway UH 0 23 lo0 138.142 link#1 UC 0 0" and on " Notebook 127.0.0.2 127.0.0.2 UH 0 0 lo0 138.142/24 link#1 UC 0 0 138.142.0.2 0:40:5:60:e4:4b UHLW 0 56 lp0" The 127.0.0.2 comes from me setting it in /etc/rc.conf, to differenciate from the 127.0.0.1 of Belatrix. The 138.etc addresses come from me attempting to install addresses. I don't get a connection. From the NT box, ftp to Belatrix 127.0.0.1 gets me an anonymous logon, but I am still in the NT box, so it is ftp responding, not Belatrix. Should I open, from the same box,the loopback address 127.0.0.1(Belatrix) or 127.0.0.2(andromed) I get a fully command responsive ftp, after anonymous logon,but cannot get out, of course. (Please read FreeBSD for BSD) Both Belatrix and the NT box have modem dialup PPP access to the Internet. Any help would be greatly appreciated and a pointer to a way to further my knowledge would also be appreciated. Regards Dick Bernard. --------------07DE7A126BFAC70C4A635CB8-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
