Reply-To: "Lefty G." To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: FreeBSD/Win95 Connectivity Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have a question/problem concerning my FreeBSD machine. I have one machine running FreeBSD and another one runnying Windows 95. Both have ethernet cards installed and I have both connected to a hub. I am trying to set up a simple network between the two computers and I trying to set up a simple network so I can telnet from my 95 machine into the FreeBSD machine. The FreeBSD kernel recognized my ethernet card, since I added support for it into the kernel. Loopback for the BSD machine works fine, but I just cannot seem to get 95 to see it. What options do I have to set up in the rc.conf file so 95 would recognize it? Do I have to set up the machine as a gateway and/or router? Any help/info/reference would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Lefty
