Here's the dmesg output on the two NICs:
dc0: <82c169 PNIC 10/100BaseTX> port 0x9100-0x91ff mem 0x81061000-0x810610ff irq 1 at device 11.0 on pci0

Here's the ifconfig output on the two NICs: dc0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.144 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::202:e3ff:fe07:173b%dc0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:02:e3:07:17:3b media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::205:5dff:fe36:15a7%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:05:5d:36:15:a7 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active
Here's my /etc/rc.conf lines for the two NICs: ifconfig_dc0="inet 192.168.1.144 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.1.145 netmask 255.255.255.0"
As you can see from the ifconfig output, the new NIC is UP and RUNNING, but has no IP address (even though I have it in /etc/rc.conf). I can bring rl0 "down" and "up" again without a problem. If I try to add the IP data manually using ifconfig, I get this error:
zeus# ifconfig rl0 inet 192.168.1.145 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists
Any ideas for getting this NIC up and running properly??
Thanks!!
