After I upgrade, I am no longer able to use ifconfig on my network cards, or get an IP address from my DHCP server. If I take out 2 of the network cards, it will work. I have produced this exact problem on several of my boxes.

OK, we will need a bit more info here.
1. What kind of Ethernet cards do you have? (make, model, driver name)
2. What exactly happens when you try to use ifconfig? Does it produce
any error messages?
3. What exactly happens when you try to obtain an IP address via DHCP?
Does dhclient produce any error messages? Is a request logged in
the DHCP server logs?
Please keep the subject line of this message, and CC a copy to
bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, so the GNATS bug tracking system can
keep track of the various replies in the problem report's audit trail.
G'luck,
Peter
