The following reply was made to PR i386/35726; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Andrew Fremantle" <temp1274@skyhawk.ca> To: <freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org> Cc: Subject: Re: i386/35726: Won't let me use ifconfig on the interfaces after upgrade to latest OS Date: Thu, 16 May 2002 23:32:00 -0700 The originators email seems to be fubared... DNS problems. Sorry to interject, but I've got something similar, though I think it may not be related to the reported problem.... FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE-p4 Two NICs. rl0 and xl0. relevant statements in /etc/rc.conf ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.0.254" ifconfig_xl0="DHCP" xl0 is always DHCP configured without problems, but rl0 is never configured at all. I haven't tried two non-DHCP configurations.... let me do that now. Okay, it works fine. To the originator : Try leaving all three NICs in, and doing non-DHCP configuration on them. I'm thinking that /etc/rc.network sees a DHCP option, processes it on perhaps only one NIC, and then stops processing interface configuration entirely.
