Hi Brian, Thanks for the quick response (it's late where you live, isn't it? :-) > It sounds like you haven't done a > > set ifaddr something hisnumber > > in your config.

We'll try that tomorrow (the test equipment is 65 miles away and my testing buddy has gone home :). But the curious thing(s) is that this *same* setup, with no changes on the FreeBSD end, works as-is with Win98 (with the same Windows settings). Also, did you see the part in the trace where we asked for the specific IP address and FreeBSD did ack that configuration? If it's just a server setup problem, that's fine, we'll change it. But I'm just curious as to what's going on... BTW, just out of curiousity, why does FreeBSD reject the identification packets? Does it really not understand them?
