I just went in to single-user mode and got em0 to configure (same as before), but now, I can ping another host on the same subnet. I will try all your suggestions and also temporarily turn off ipfw. I did look at the rules and I did remember to change them to fit the new address when the system left here. If that's it, I should have a working system all be it a totally open system. I will let you know what happens.
