It should work by giving the interface a subnet of 255.255.255.255. __ Do you Yahoo!?

And how could I make the card work ? Hi! Well, as the output states, your arguments to ifconfig are incorrect. to check if the card is recognized: dmesg |grep rl0 when it appears, do a: ifconfig -a to see, if a rl0 interface is there. to simply configure it, do: ifconfig rl0 192.168.1.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 shall be sufficient. To make it permanent during bootup, insert in /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.1.11 netmask 255.255.255.0" HTH Olaf -- Olaf Hoyer[EMAIL PROTECTED] Fuerchterliche Erlebniss geben zu raten, ob der, welcher sie erlebt, nicht etwas Fuerchterliches ist.

Re: Multiple RealTect adaptors
Dear list, I already have found MAKEDEV all in /dev folder. Started, finished, no progress. The card is physically OK. While trying to reconfigure eth card via ifconfig rl0 create inet 192.168.1.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 it returns err: SIOCIFCREATE: Invalid agrument. What do I do wrong? And how could I make the card work ? Peter ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Multiple RealTect adaptors
Dear list, I have created small server with 2 Eth RealTec adaptors. After boot, one is properly configured, second has no IP address, and I can not finish the setup. The failure apear right after recompiling the world and kernel. I have only ran make world; make kernel. Is there something I forgot to do? E.g. to recreate everything in /dev? And how to do it? Please help me ASAP, I have to finish it this night.
