AXPers, I have been running FreeBSD 5.0 20010721-CURRENT on a AS5305. I have encountered some odd behavior between my DEC 21140-AA NIC and 5.0-Current. It seems from all the research, trial and error, that there is something not right. Problem: telnet & ping to exisisting LAN boxes or WAN - brings up "No Host found...." Synopsis: Ethernet Card is able to "Auto-Negotiate" w/ switch or hub, but does not send or recieve data.... ** Only able to ping "localhost" Observations: 1.) NIC works (tested on a Win2000 machine) able to access Internet and LAN machines. 2.) Have tried different "SRM settings: (Set ewa0_mode" Auto-Negotiate, Fast, Twisted-Pair) -- No Avail 3.) Switch led ON: -- "indicating life from NIC and NIC is detected by Switch/ Hub" 4.) 2 led lights on EtherNet Card ON: "link" & "100" -- "alive I assume" 5.) /etc/rc.conf file configured correctly -- "settings exactly ike other FreeBSD Boxes in Network" 6.) Tried another Hub which is a 10base-T and the Ethernet Card's "Auto-Negotiate" changes NIC to a "10 base-T half-duplex" -- same story bad... 7.) ifconfig -a reads: de0: flags=8c43<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.55 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::280:2bff:fe00:69f%de0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:06:2b:00:06:9f media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active lp0: flags=8049<UP, LOOPBACK, RUNNING, MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 faith0: flags=8000<MULTICAST> mtu 1500 Lastly, I have low-level formatted my drives and tried to re-Install via "FTP Install from an FTP server" and configured my network settings, and still to no avail. Can there be something with the kernel.flp and or kernel? Thanks, Diego Montalvo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
