> Hi: > > I need to run rarpd on my Freebsd box, but I'm getting the error: > device bpf0 not configured. > > Checking the man pages, I saw that I need to configure that device > (Berkeley PAcket Filter) in kernel, but I don't know how ! > If anyone has some tips, it would be greatly appreciated ! cd /sys/i386/conf cp GENERIC MYKERNEL edit MYKERNEL at the end and add the line pseudo-device bpfilter 4 (the 4 is a value that suits most requirements) (You may rip off other devices from the CONFIG file at this time since it can speed up booting dramatically. e.g. when you don't have wdc1 remove it, if you dont have sio2/3 remove it etc., watch out to leave npx0 in. You can also remove pci0 when you don't have a pci system. remove various network cards and scsi devices if you don't have any and so on..) config MYKERNEL cd /sys/compile/MYKERNEL make depend all mv /kernel /kernel.old mv kernel / sync ; reboot (Note: you may also use make depend all install in which case the make process does the kernel installation process automatically for you but it installs the kernel with the schg flags (man chflags) which is sureley a safety measure but can be hindering when you build kernel often.) > > Thanks! > Helio. > > --Chris Christoph P.
