Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I am unclear on how to resolve this problem. I have a fddi card installed in the kernal properly, but it seems that none of the networking software realizes I have any networking cards. Have I left out some important configuration steps? What do I need to do to get the computer to deal with my fddi card for networking? Here is my present configuration: 1. Installed FreeBSD. 2. Copied GENERIC kernal and inserted lines device fpa0 and pseudo fddi 3. config kernal - no problems. 4. make kernal - no problems. 5. make install - no problems. 6. reboot and start up the new kernal - no problems. That's it. The new kernal clearly recognizes the fddi card. I'm just stumped as to how to get all the networking programs to use it. Any advice/help/suggestions WARMLY received! Thanks! Robert
