This problem is an issue with the /etc/rc.network
script and in other configuration scripts somewhere.
Something in the configuration/installation process set
'network_interfaces' in /etc/rc.conf to "tx0 auto".
The /etc/rc.network script will not process this
correctly, as the "auto" value is only expanded at
the top level, not within the loop that processes
network interfaces.
This means that the loopback (lo0) interface never
comes up, and all sorts of rpc stuff will fail to
work.
