I don't suppose you know the model and brand of the 2nd NIC. Although I am sure there are clairvoyants and telepathic people who use FreeBSD, most of us aren't. > please if i asked a stupid question pls do not miind me. It's not a stupid question. However, I will say this AGAIN: 1) Questions really should be sent to freebsd-questions 2) DO NOT put in a subject that is ALL CAPITALS - we're quite capable of reading subjects without being shouted at - yes, I'm shouting (but that's because one of us isn't listening) > i am new to all these things and i just wanna learn > from the best; you.. Yes, but I am trying to gently suggest ways you will get better answers to your questions. There are others here lurking who won't answer you as nicely as I do ;-( DSL -- There are no other guests, just you and me... I'm in love with, surely you know that?
