Hi,

rc.conf appears to be correct. ed1 is listed in network_interfaces. As far as I can tell, ifconfig doesn't use network_interfaces to determine if an interface exists...

Regards,

David James

>Hi,

    You must have forgotten to indicate the system that another usable card
is in it, add the ed1 interface to the following line in the /etc/rc.conf
file to look like this:

network_interfaces="fxp0 tun0 lo0 ed1"

also if the fxp0 card isnt working anymore, remove it from this line.

Good Luck...

Ales
