A `netstat -in' should list "rl0" as one of your available network devices. To actually activate it you have to put in something in /etc/rc.conf (which will automatically activate it after a reboot), eg: ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.2.21 netmask 255.255.255.0" Or manually set it as root with: # ifconfig rl0 inet 192.168.2.21 netmask 255.255.255.0 Cheers. -- Jonathan Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Lots of folks confuse bad management with destiny" - Kin Hubbard To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
