Is the > problem that both devices are using a '0'(e.g. sis0 nge0)? No, this is not the problem. I don't know why sysinstall won't configure the card, but maybe you can try it from command line: ifconfig nge0 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 (of course, use the correct ip address and netmask for your network). If something is wrong, it will at least give you an error message. If the address 'sticks', then append the following line to /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_nge0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0" This will make sure the address remains after reboot. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * ASCII stupid question, get a stupid ANSI!
