--0-1810167662-982019487=:15755 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hello I am a newbie to FreeBSD and wanted to ask about an issue related to NIC card installation. I bought an SMC EZ isa nic card and plugged it into an open ISA slot on my machine. Next I booted up and did the following: ping localhost -- It worked Next I tried ifconfig ed0 -- and the system returned stating that an ed0 device was not installed. I ran /stand/sysinstall and went through the network configuration menus but never saw the ed0 device. ifconfig -a returned ppp0, lp0, s10 but not ed0. I am not sure what I am missing. My goal is to configure PPPOE so that I can access the internet over the internet. Thanking you in advance for your time.
