I'm not sure I understand so I'm going to be a bit long winded. Are you saying that you have something like the following in rc.conf: ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" pccard_ifconfig="inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" ? And that you have to comment one of these out and reboot for the other to work ? What is the output of doing sync sh /etc/rc ? -- - Wayne Pascoe - http://www.penguinpowered.org.uk/wayne/ BSD is for people who love UNIX; Linux is for people who hate Windows To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
