According to kernel config file, ep0 is for the 3C509 ethernet card and I configured for it. But during a boot, the kernel reports, lp0 as TCP/IP ready device besides the ep0. Where did the lp0 came from? And then from the FreeBSD box the netstart -nr reports: 206.24.68.1 ... ... ... ep0 ; BSDi box 206.24.68.15 ... ... ... lp0 ; FreeBSD box The FreeBSD see's the BSDi's ethernet as ep0 but lp0 on its own. I'm a bit confused. Also the netstat -i shows: lp0*, ep0, lo0*, tun0* What is lo0? Do I need tun0? I think I got the network somewhat working, at least, I can ping by IP from the FreeBSD box, but still can't ping by name. Could you help?
