I'm not quite sure how to set it up and have spent almost all day yesterday trying to get it to work. Here's the situation: (not the real ips...) Gateway: 208.165.194.1 My IP: 208.165.194.5 I'm using ep0, that is working allright. I tried putting some stuff in my /etc/rc.conf file... hostname="jon.domain.here" network_interfaces="ep0 lo0" ifconfig_ep0="inet 208.165.194.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 208.165.194.1" then i added defaultrouter="208.165.194.1" So as you can see I have no idea what I'm doing and how to do it... any help would be appreciated.
