I have device ep in the config file and it hterka->complies OK. hterka-> hterka->On boot all I see about the card is: "isa0: if_ep: hterka-><3Com 3C509-TPO EtherLink III> at 0x210 in PnP mode!" hterka->followed by "isa_probe_children: disabling PnP hterka->devices". I cannot create a device for ep or ep0 hterka->using /dev/MAKEDEV. hterka-> Hmmm, I have the same card in my FreeBSD-4.2 box and it actually only has one RJ-45 jack on the back but it was reported as having both 10-Base2 on ep0 and the 10-BaseT on ep1, I configured ep1, ignored the ep0 settings and all went well. I had to bump my PCI network card to put in a Belkin USB 2-port (PCI) card and since I had all other slots used I reached for my backup hardware, circa ISA. -- Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 San Francisco, CA 94121 "UNIX, A Way of Life."
