Doug, Thanks for the response!

Yes it is a cable connection. Since posting the first message, I got the
FreeBSD system to work rather easily. It pings the other card and
reports the cards address correctly. But, I cannot ping from the NT side.

The NT machine has an ftp server running but I cannot ftp into it.
("permission denied") I think I must have messed up the NT install. It
acts as though it doesn't know there is another machine out there.
I think I'll scrap the idea and run FreeBSD and keep all the win/dos
stuff on a partition.

Do you have any coments about a Toshiba 4x CDROM on an atapi IDE interface? 
Or a Soundblaster 16? I'm guessing these have a good chance of working
with 2.2.1R I've ordered.

Thanks again, John
