Just came across an article in FreeBSD diary, http://freebsddiary.org/plip.html and guess what .... ? "Adding PLIP to your kernel is as easy as adding the line: device plip0 at ppbus? to your kernel configuration, recompiling your kernel, installing it and rebooting. If you do not already have parallel support in your kernel, then you must add it." THAT seems to be the problem - I need to compile a new kernel for PLIP install to work. -- Regards, Brian ******************************************************** Dr Brian Astill Visiting Research Fellow Flinders University Institute of International Education Bus 8201 3480 FAX 8449 9199 bastill@sa.apana.org.au ******************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
