The network cards are NE2000, and 3c509 and i have recompiled the Kernel and successfully detect both NIC's as ed0 and ep0 respectively. I have no problem ifconfig ed0 to 10.10.10.3, but when i tried to ifconfig ep0 to 10.10.10.5, there is an error which says >> ifconfig: ioctrl(SIOCAIFADDR): File exist it doesn't matter whether I ifconfig ed0 first or ep0 first, the first configured network card always can ifconfig, and there is always a problem configuring the second one. i have no clues how to configure it so that both network cards can be used at the same time... thanks in advance! daniel. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
