Everytime I try to ping outside the machine I get "no route found". I believe my problem lies in the configuration of the ethernet card. Running ifconfig shows me that everthing is there but instead of <full duplex>, it says <hw-loopback>. > > I was successfully running windows on this machine and it did access the internet, so I know the problem lies somewhere in the configuration. The version of FreeBSD is 5.2. > > Any help is appreciated > > Sincerly > > David > > David, it sounds like you simply don't have a gateway route assigned to the system. Try running netstat -ran and see if you show a default route in your routing table. -- Micheal Patterson TSG Network Administration 405-917-0600 Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
