Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello All, I am trying without success to make FreeBSD find my second ethernet card. I am using 2 inexpensive ethernet cards (Realtek 8019) that work with the NE2000 driver. Using the visual configuration manager at installation time, I was able to configure device ed0 as my first ethernet card. However, it would not allow me to configure an ed1 device. I am attempting to configure this system as a firewall. I am using the 3.1-RELEASE version, using whatever generic kernel it installed by default. I'm not familiar with compiling my kernel in freebsd, though I'm familiar with the procedure in linux. My first ethernet card is configured on ed0 with these parameters: irq 10, 0x280. My other card is on irq 11, 0x260. This conbination has worked well for me in linux, so I know a conflict doesn't arise. I just don't know how to tell the kernel to find my second card and assign it a device name so I can complete the firewall configuration. Any suggestion/comments welcome. Please email me at one of these addresses: LANGED0115@uni.edu lange92@cns.uni.edu Thanks in advance, Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
