This reply and followups are directed there.] Administrator wrote, > How can I get my system to identify a second network card to utilize the FreeBSD system? Please advise. That depends on the card. Is it ISA or PCI? ISA will require modifications to the kernel, but if you already have a similar card working, it should not be a big challenge. If it is a second PCI, even easier, just slap it in, the kernel will pick up multiple cards of the same type with a single line in the kernel config. So, what type of card are you adding, what type do you have working (I assume you do from the way the question is posed), and how is your kernel configured now? -- Crist J.
