Hi, With 5.X, polling was enabled by setting the sysctl variable. However, with 6-Stable this seems to be depreciated; instead polling should be added per interface in the ifconfig line. I used to have this in /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_sk0="inet 147.46.41.211 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_sk0_alias0="ether 00:50:bf:33:01:01" (Note that I need the alias0 line, to enforce a particular hardware address for the interface) How do I add polling here? When I add 'polling' at the end of either line, then the configuration is not done properly or even not done at all. Thanks, Rob. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
