Hi - Two questions I'd appreciate some help with. 1. Today I got two error messages on the system terminal ... ste0: transmission error 88 ste0: transmission error 82 ... (ste0 is an nic on the LAN side of my firewall)and at the same time ste0 seemed to stop working. I presumed it was a hardware failure but I rebooted and everything is now fine. Can anyone tell me of any diagnostics I could run on this card to try to figure out what its problem was/might be (also where I can read what,eg, '88' signifies)? 2. When I built this system I seem to recall that during the installation the e'net cards were detected and auto-configured (I might be wrong here but that's how I recollect it). So my question is if I need to replace a dead card will the system repeat the autoconfig on reboot or was that something that only the install did ? Hope you can make some sense of these slightly naive questions. all the best richard shea. ***************************************************** Open Door Ltd PO Box 119-46 Wellington, NZ PH +64 4 384 7639 FX +64 4 384 7672 ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
