If they're plain 3C905 cards, you just have to compile support for them into your kernel. To do so, add the lines "device vx0" and "device vx1" to the section of your kernel config file where ethernet adapters go, recompile your kernel, and reboot. If they're 3C905-B cards, though, I believe you'll have to update to FreeBSD 3.0. Even if they're not, though, I would highly recommend that you at least update to 2.2.7-STABLE. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.
