Everything goes okay until I attempt to ftp the sets, the server can't be reached. Dropping onto a shell from a fixit floppy, ifconfig -a shows the interface, and correct network config, but the machine can't be pinged from another machine on the local subnet. The machine is an HP Netserver E50, and it, and the network, (incl fxp0) work fine under NetBSD + Windows NT. I've gone through at startup and skipped the config hardware steps, and also tried deleting all the extraneous hardware. Same results both ways. Any thoughts? -- David Maxwell, david@vex.net|david@maxwell.net --> Any sufficiently advanced Common Sense will seem like magic... - me To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
