NIC suddenly stopped working for no appearent reason. Believing the NIC was bad I throw in an extra NIC and ran the machine from that. But within a month a capacitor blew in the PSU and when I replaced the PSU the onboard NIC worked again. This scenario repeated 3 times in exactly the same way before I switched to another PSU brand and haven't had any problems since. In my case I couldn't get the NIC running with a simple flushing of the routes though. But if nothing has changed in the software on the machine you should probably start looking at the hardware. /PP ___ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" No virus found in this incoming message.

Re: FreeBSD 5.0 ncplib missing kernel module nwfs.ko?
Hello Kris and thank you for your swift reply, I have searched the machine for nwfs.ko and it doesn't exist. I have of course rebuilt kernel with options IPX and recompiled ncplib to make sure that it didn't 'get lost' during that process. I have also cvsupped all-src. When I did this on FreeBSD4.6, 4.4 and older machines it always worked after enabling IPX in kernel and compile in ncplib, is there any other way of enabling nwfs in the kernel? Btw, the module if_ef.ko is there and IPCrouted is started fine and ifconfig displays the IPX info.

Have you added nwfs support to your kernel, or do you have the nwfs.ko module available in the module load path?

FreeBSD 5.0 ncplib missing kernel module nwfs.ko?
Dear Mailinglist, My FreeBSD5.0 tells me "ncp_initlib: can't find kernel module" after doing a mount_nwfs. Kldstat -v tells me that nwfs.ko isn't there. The if_ef.ko is there though. I have options IPX in kernel and the IPXrouted is running fine. Could the ncplib port be broken on 5.0? I'd be grateful for any help on the matter. /Roger Med vänlig hälsning Roger Olofsson ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
