ipconfig -a doesn't show the skc0 device which I believe is my ultimate problem. Can I infer from your earlier message that this means the sk module is not being loaded or is not available? How can I check to see if the loadable module is installed? Thanks, Keith -----Original Message----- From: Loren M.

No, actually the sk driver, look at the first line of pciconfig output. ifconfig -a should list a network card called skc0 which you just need to configure. If all you need is dhcp then just run dhclient skc0. Add the device to rc.conf for it to work on boot. Use man rc.conf for help or copy the line for the xl0 network card you already have. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- I sense much NT in you.
