I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.6 with a 3com 905BTX network card, and I got the driver compiled and it appears to be working ok (autoneg connects to the hub correctly).. but I am having a problem... here are some snips of rc.conf and the output of netstat -rn rc.conf: -------- network_interfaces="lo0 xl0" # List of network interfaces (lo0 is ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuratio fconfig_xl0="inet x.x.107.204 netmask 0xffffffff" # the 3com 905BTX defaultrouter="x.x.107.206" # set to default gateway ( or NO ) netstat -rn ----------- Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif 10.2.5.1 x.x.107.204 UH 1 1090 tun0 localhost localhost UH 0 461 lo0 x.x.107.200 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 0 3 xl0 => x.x.107.200/29 link#1 UC 0 0 x.x.107.206 0:e0:29:15:56:ac UHLW 0 14 xl0 34 BTW - 10.2.5.1 is me ppp'd in :) Ok, now the problem is, whenever I ping x.x.107.206 I get no response.. (206 is an ISP hooked up to this machine through a hub..there is a win95 machine plugged into the same hub that is working ok ) ping just sits there. Same result any way I try to access it any other way (as default route, dns, etc).. I'm pretty new to networking, so hopefully I'm just overlooking some step... Please respond to nerohj@california.com Any help is greatly appreciated! thanks, form ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
