> If the full-duplex might be related, how would I set it to half-duplex?

If they both live on a switch then full duplex is likely preferable.  If
they both live on a hub half duplex what you want.  Make sure both ends
are at the same duplex setting.  To manually set the 10/100 half/full
duplex settings read the ifconfig(8) man page, specifically the `media'
and `mediaopt' sections, and the driver man page for your card, in this
case the rl(4) driver.

e.g.  ifconfig rl0 inet 1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 100baseTX
mediaopt half-duplex.
