No solution for it? Man, the company that I work for depends on the token-ring network a BIG time. We have very small ethernet for clients testing purpose. I just want to show off my FreeBSD box to my co-workers. DHCP, like many other things, assumes that only ethernet packets exist in the world. It sees the token-ring packet as a broken ethernet packet and ignores it. -- Larry Lile lile@stdio.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-tokenring" in the body of the message
