Hell(o) everyone,
I have just installed freebsd 3.3 on my Pentium class system. I am =
still using the generic kernal, although the rebuild is on its way... I =
have a newly supported (thanks guys) 3c905c-TX NIC.
All of the networking seems to be working fine, with the exception =
of one thing, and that it I cannot ping myself. I get an ARPresolve =
failure. I was thinking that there was a DNS problem, since I am using =
an external server, but that wasn't it. I checked ifconfig -a, and =
found that my 3c905c is working in half-duplex mode. Could this be the =
problem?
Thanks in advance.
Chuck
