I am unable to telnet or Jeremy, It means either the ethernet card configuration is not really set to 10/300 or that it has not been configured with the correct IP address and netmask. Or it could just mean you have a defective NIC. Reboot with the -c option again. At the > prompt enter "visual" to get the full screen configuration utility. Double check ed0 and make certain that it is set to irq 10 io 300. The kernel will probe and detect it regardless of the irq setting as long as the io is at 300, so having the card show as detected during boot does not mean that the kernel is looking for it at irq 10. If that's OK then the problem is either in rc.conf or a bad nic or other hardware. Here's a snippet from rc.conf with the settings you want: ############################################################## ### Network configuration sub-section ###################### ############################################################## ### Basic network options: ### hostname="twcmedia.dcoisp.net" # Set this! nisdomainname="NO" # Set to NIS domain if using NIS (or NO). firewall="NO" # Set to firewall type or NO for none. tcp_extensions="YES" # Allow RFC1323 & RFC1544 extensions (or NO). network_interfaces="lo0 ed0" # List of network interfaces (lo0 is loopback). ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuration. ifconfig_ed0="inet 208.128.192.241 -netmask 255.255.255.224" [ lots snipped ] ### Network routing options: ### defaultrouter="208.128.192.225" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="NO" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. router_enable="NO" # Set to YES to enable a routing daemon. router="routed" # Name of routing daemon to use if enabled. router_flags="-q" # Flags for routing daemon. mrouted_enable="NO" # Do multicast routing (see /etc/mrouted.conf) ipxgateway_enable="NO" # Set to YES to enable IPX routing. ipxrouted_enable="NO" # Set to YES to run the IPX routing daemon. ipxrouted_flags="" # Flags for IPX routing daemon. arpproxy_all="" # obsolete kernel option ARP_PROXY_ALL equiv.
