To: freebsd-questions@freefall.cdrom.com Date: Mon, 30 Jan 1995 16:11:55 -0500 (EST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-Type: text Content-Length: 370 Sender: questions-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi, a friend has installed FreeBSD2.0Release, and has a 3C509 ethernet card installed. The card is probed when he boots up, he's configured the interface with ifconfig but can't ping any other hosts on his network (by IP #)?. Perhaps a recipe of the steps involved to configure the interface by hand that I can give him would be helpfull? -Cheers, Erin
