Thank you very much for your detailed response. You have given me a lot to check. Being an extreme newbie, I included what I thought would be necessary, but I can definitely understand why you would need more. Here goes (please try to excuse any minor typos (hopefully there will be none!) as my FreeBSD box is not online, so I have to type all this on my Windows box....yea...there probably is a an easier way, but like I said...I'm a newbie- I'm not sure how to make it easier. anyway...here goes... >Make sure that you did NOT remove acd. :-) As you are, by self-admission, a newbie, I'm assuming you did NOT build a new kernel, but merely went through the visual config at bootup, right? correct...visual config...I did not build a new kernel...I did not remove acd though, made sure of that one. >Please include your FULL dmesg output; in particular, you haven't included any output from the acd detection phase .... dmesg | more --complete output--after trying to mount cdrom (see below dmesg) --copyright omitted FreeBSD ver. 3.3- Release #0: Thu Sep 16 23:40:35 GMT 1999 -- address and path omitted Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz CPU: Celeron (434.32-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x665 Stepping = 5 --features omitted real memory = 67108864 (65536K bytes) config> di psm0 config> di zp0 config> di ze0 config> di lnc0 config> di le0 config> di ie0 config> di fe0 config> di ex0 config> di ep0 config> di ed0 config> di cs0 config> di wt0 config> di scd0 config> di mcd0 config> di matchcd0 config> di bt0 config> di aha0 config> di adv0 config> q avail memory = 61628426 (60184K bytes) preloaded elf kernel "kernel" at 0xc0379000.

That's a good sign, then. I'd check your /dev tree more carefully >and try `sh MAKEDEV acd0`. /dev lists both acd0a and acd0c sh MAKEDEV acd0 produced no result Hopefully this will give something to work with. Thank you very much for taking the time help out a newbie. It is greatly appreciated. As you could see I have 2 NICs, this is routing a DSL connection to my LAN. The modem was delivered today, and NorthPoint is doing the wiring in the next few days. That will be another interesting problem, but I don't even want to think about it yet. Thanks again, Ryan.
