>Description:
Added the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable IPX protocol,
after compiling kernel with IPX and NCPFS options.
ifconfig_fxp0_ipx="0x00010010"
ipxrouted_enable="YES"
When system booted, boot message paused on " sendmail" for several minutes.
After system finished booting, no tcp/ip available. Checking ifconfig,
showed my tcp/ip address to be 1.0.16.0
>How-To-Repeat:
Add above lines to /etc/rc.conf and reboot
>Fix:
Checking showed that the line in rc.network that configures IPX was:
ifconfig ${ifn} ${ifconfig_args}
but should have been:
ifconfig ${ifn} ipx ${ifconfig_args}
