I was trying to setup my ed0 ether card as the default gateway, and did not understood how to do it until I used the sysinstall utility to reconfigure the ed0 card. But I still don't understand how it is enabled. I searched the /etc/directory for any use of the defaultrouter variable, and all I found is the rc.networks file that mentions an assignement like: route_default="default ${defaultrouter}" but the route_default variable is not used anywhere else!!! How could I have enabled the default route without rebooting? Thanks! ############################### ## Au nom de l'etat, ## ## La force s'appelle droit. ## ## Au main de l'individu, ## ## Elle se nomme crime. ## ## ## ## -Berurier Noir ## ############################### Spidey Visitez http://www.JSP.UMontreal.CA/~beaupran To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
