I need to configure it # but I do not know the commands. Normally, I would type # boot -r from the OK prompt then configure IP address for the NIC. But with # Free BSD I am not sure of the commands. I know I must modify the rc.conf # file but what else? Run /stand/sysinstall as root, go under Configuration (?) and you can edit the interfaces from there. Or you can add something like: ifconfig_fxp1="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" to /etc/rc.conf if the new Intel card is in addition to another Intel card. If there isn't already a line in /etc/rc.conf with fxp0, then use fxp0 instead of fxp1. -- Linh Pham [lplist@closedsrc.org] // 404b - Brain not found To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
