Just adding the device to the kernel and rebuilding should do it. Actually, you probably have a working module in /modules so a simple "kldload if_sk" should do it. Adding the following line to your /boot/loader.conf file should cause this to be loaded at boot (at least, I think it will, I took the line from a -current system.): if_sk_load="YES" No MAKEDEV is needed since sk, like most network interfaces doesn't have an entry in /dev. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
