Maybe, tulip for eth0 (or netsemi as suggested Netgear), the DLink card uses the rtl8139 as a posted earlier for eth1 (which is not coming up because the wrong module was being loaded for it). > > I modified network.conf as follows (everything else left at default > > = setting): > > MAX_LOOP=3D2 > > HOSTNAME=3DBIER > > HOSTS0=3D"eth1_IPADDR $HOSTNAME.attbi.com $HOSTNAME fw" > > You'll need to modify network.conf a lot more than that... it's > well-documented internally.

The DHCP request got you a good ip addy and netfilter isn't complaining about eth0 (WAN) at all, it is just complaining because eth1 (LAN) isn't found. -- ~Lynn Avants aka Guitarlynn guitarlynn at users.sourceforge.net http://leaf.sourceforge.net If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question! _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
