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. - Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
