I added this to my rc.conf: ifconfig_dc0_alias1="inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" I am not sure if this is the right thing to do but... this is not working... I believe I need some way to let my workstation machine know how to get to this I.P. address... Forgive me, I'm basically a networking newbie...
