Just try too keep in mind thing that apply to tcp/ip networking in general and things that are specific to ethernet. Most sysadmin books I've read take the all-the-world-is-an-ethernet approach and mention slip and ppp off in some remote corner. That may be okay for the mainstream workstation consumer (sun, hp, dec, sgi) but I suspect the FreeBSD userbase has a much higher proportion of SLIP and PPP users. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============
