Hey, I've just installed FreeeBSD 4.4-Release and I'm having problems =
with my network card>
Following is the setup

Win2000 box (10.0.0.2/24 gw 10.0.0.1 )
    |
Cross-Ethernet Cable
   |
FreeBSD/Win2000 box (10.0.0.1/24 gw 10.0.0.1)

When both systems are running win2000, my network works fine (so cable =
and network cards are fine)

When running FreeBSD, I can't get the two systems to talk to eachother. =
On the FreeBSD box, I can ping it's network card (10.0.0.1), the same on =
the win2000 box.=20
When running netstat -rn, I see that there is a link to the 10.0.0.2 ip =
address, so when booting up, it seems like it recognizes the other =
system.
10.0.0.2    link#2    UHLW    1    0    ex0

When running arp -a, there are no arp entries to be found, and the arp =
entry for 10.0.0.2 is as follows
- ? (10.0.0.2) at (incomplete) [ethernet]

Why can I not see my win2000 box and vice-versa?

Please reply to my address since I have a small mailbox and they kicked =
me of the list due to to much mail. So I'm not a member anymore.

Thanks in advance.

_Alain
