thanks for all input! 1) doh! I didn't think to look under /usr/share/examples. *heaps* of info there. 2) I wasn't doing the ifconfig before the atm pvc. I'd assumed you bound IP services after the entire ATM 'stack' was configured. 3) I have a very recent pca200e.bin file, via a Fore employeee and not a 'known to work' image. In fact, the fore-microcode.txt document *explicitly* warned my version didn't work. I downloaded the correct image from Fore. fore_dnld now behaves *completely* differently. I suggest that the fore-microcode.txt doc note that an incorrect image can be diagnosed as a slow return from calling fore_dnld (of the order 45 sec) with no output. that, plus calling the ifconfig before the atm attach and atm add pvc seems to have done it. (one end only so far: other machine still offline but I'm hopeful) Many thanks to everyone who replied. cheers -George To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-atm" in the body of the message
