Harumph, I just went out and bought a shiny new NE2000 compatible (read: cheap) to go alongside the one in my FreeBSD gateway, and replace the 3Com 3c509 that had been giving a bit of jip recently. I rolled up a nice new kernel, changed the startup stuff in /etc/rc.conf and rebooted -Aaaagh, complete spasms. Ifconfig refused to add the IP addresses and various other scary problems related to that. Finally, I have ifconfig adding the IP's but still the *naughty word-ing* thing is having problems. Grrr, I'm not happy. Note, this isn't a question. I just wanted to vent a little frustration at being a newbie and not being able to work out what is wrong! Still, I guess this is the best way to learn, have something fall over and have to get your hands dirty and fix it. :( ---------------------------------------------- Tim Parkinson -Teaching Company Associate Nottingham Trent University & Clerical Gas Ltd Tel: 0115 9783677 Fax: 0115 9706977 tim.parkinson@ccr.ntu.ac.uk tim@gubbins.ml.org -Home To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
