Hi, I just installed Freebsd on my comp last night. I am running a 4 computer network in my house. Of the four, excluding the recent 486 bsd, all the comps are running win98. I have dsl. I was planning on using the freebsd comp as a gateway to the internet and to allow ip translation. Unfortunately, i did not realize that i need 2 network card before i installed bsd. I went out and bought 2 isa net cards and installed them. That is where i am at. I vaguely remember hearing something about recompiling my kernal, but have no idea how to do this. Basically, i would like to know how to get my comp to start with only the stuff it needs, make sure it recognizes my nic cards. I have been reading on the /etc/rc.conf and what i need to do to get my ip translation to work. So if anyone can tell me how to recompile my kernal and how to find out whether bsd recognizes my nic cards, that would be a lot of help.
