Hello
Im pretty new the freeBSD. Im working with 5.3. Each time I start up  
the computer I have to go to /usr/sbin/sysintall and configure it to  
use my network. I plugged directly in and Im not sure why I have to  
set this up each time.
Also, when I go to configure -> networking -> interfaces it shows my  
network card (3COM) but gives an error about not finding the  
dhcpclient (but it still works). Wondering if theres a way to make it  
save my changes? Or is the issue related to the dhcp client?
Thanks
Eoghan
