My dhclient.conf file looks like this :

#Defaults

interface "de0" {
send host-name "cr...";
}

My rc.conf file has these important lines in it :

ifconfig_de0="DHCP"
hostname "cr..."


when i type in :

# dhclient de0 

it says :

null not found
de0 not found

what is wrong here?

someone told me to make sure rc.conf has a network_interfaces="de0 10," line

i have no idea what to do.

Please help
