It needs the vx0 driver > enabling in the kernel config file and the kernel re-building. The vx driver doesn't work with later 3C90x cards, including the 3C900B. You'll need the xl driver which is part of 2.2.8 and 3.x (and has support back to 2.2.5). It is available from the author's site at: http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/3Com/ and comes with full instructions for installation. Works like a charm. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
