I installed 9.3 late Thursday afternoon and the system appeared to have no network connectivity. It then refused to boot properly which turned out to be another issue which I probably caused by pulling the installation thumb drive before it had dismounted (unrelated to the problem at hand.) After correcting the file system and rebooting, the whole world came to life. The sysinstall program had selected bge1 instead of bge0 and it got a DHCP lease when I connected to bge1. I was able to do normal activity which included several ssh sessions plus a SCP of a tar file with no problem at all. I then also tried a hard-coded address on bge0 and that worked fine after plugging in to that jack. Many thanks. I think we are winning finally. Martin
