Thanks... I did already have that set to 10.0.0.1 since that is the router
when I use dialup. The one thing I see different when I do ifconfig -a on
both mahines is that the broadcast for eth0 on the linux box is 10.0.0.0
and on the freeBSD box (ed1) it is 10.0.0.255 . Icant figure out how to
make it 10.0.0.0
