The local cable TV company will be offering "cable modem" service here soon, with the promise of enormously faster speeds. The cable modem connects via 10baseT ethernet. However, they do not offer static IP addresses. Question: is it possible to configure an ethernet card to use a server-assigned IP address? "Man ifconfig" doesn't mention this topic at all. BTW, I'm running 2.2.7-RELEASE and my current card uses the ed device. I'd need a second card if I were to do this. All advice gratefully accepted - thanks in advance! -- Chris Hill jchill@dgsys.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
