Well I was thinking that various daemons have configuration options re: which interface to listen on etc, but I suppose that doesn't work for every other net utility that comes with the base system. I suppose one just uses aliases if one desires multiple IP's per subnet. What I'm curious about is how you accomplish "NIC teaming" (a feature of the Znyx adapters) if you can't do this. I guess their driver solves that problem. > Try using a different subnet for the second one, to > see if it works in ifconfig. Set a second machine to > the subnet to see if you can ping.

Now if I could only figure out how to print the entire routing table -- any way to do that without entering in specific destination networks multiple times with the "route get" command? With Windoze, there is a "route print" command, in Linux just typing "route" with no arguments shows this. How do I do it in FreeBSD? TIA, Phil -- Philip J.
