That assumes that the box being setup is connected to the net somehow right? It isn't (yet!) >What sort of ethernet card is it ? If its PCI, you dont need to worry about that. Sorry its an older 486 PC, - PCI wasn't invented! :-) .....I have a dozen Cards around here, I was trying an "autoconfig card (SMC), then I tried an Intel 8/16 but that didn't seem to go either, so right now I have a Winbond card in there. I picked that as it has jumpers I can set visually......where is WinMSD in FreeBSD? .... how do I find out if it is seeing the card,? >See www.apache.org ummmm I think I have a dozen or so steps before apache Thanks again for your comments. I have the docs you described. Just getting sick of all the reading!! :-) Doing tech support for a living, I understand you "not working" comments, in this case I was really just looking for a short todo list with some references....maybe it just isn't out there.?
