OK I have not used multi-port ethernet cards before - it
should be simple enough but for some reason I am hitting
problems. (The FreeBSD installation tool for 4.7 does not
help with configuring multiple NICS - it creates a new hosts
file each time!!)
de0, de1, de2, de3 and le0 are my devices.
Ip allocation xxx.xxx.xxx.2
xxx.xxx.xxx.3
xxx.xxx.xxx.4
xxx.xxx.yyy.aaa
ccc.ddd.eee.fff
as IP Addresses for the devices.
3 NICS are on one sub net and two NIC's on others.
If I need to allocate individual hostnames for each IP
address how do configure them. Do I do that in /etc/hosts?
Does FreeBSD only recognize a single hostname for a kernel?
What do I do about loopback?
The hostnames are not within the same domain even when there
are on the same subnet.
Some guidance appreciated.
David
