I have options IPX and options NCP in my kernel configuration. ifconfig xl0 ipx up running IPXrouted -t shows some small-time IPX traffic running ncplist s [server] can't seem to find anything. My ipx network is functioning, a netware client on the same link shows servers fine, and netware servers show this netnumber showing up. The IPX networks are linked via Cisco equipment and a Win98 client running Client 32 v3.21 works just dandy, so I know I have reliable IPX routing taking place. Some questions: What frame type does Freebsd support and can it be set? The README from netipx says its Ethernet_II, I've rotated through all the frame types (802.2, 802.3, E_II) on the Cisco's ethernet interface with no luck. I'd love to RTFM if someone will show me where the FM is. The manpages are sparse on getting the networking part up. I'd even write a FAQ entry if I could get it working. -Shawn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
