I installed a 2nd NIC, added an entry for it in my kernel config file,
recompiled, and added appropriate entries (AFAIK) in rc.conf. Upon reboot,
FBSD detects both cards and sets them up but only the original responds to
ping. I get the following messages at restart:

So from this I gather that something is not working right with my second
NIC. I know the card works as it was just removed from another PC and was
working under Windows 2000. I have a link light on my hub. What steps
should I take to begin troubleshooting? I'm a newbie so please respond
assuming I know nothing. :)
Thanks,
Drew
