   I just installed my new Intel NIC and it shows up
fine
in dmesg.  I have also added these lines to rc.conf.

network_interfaces="fxp0"
ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP"

   However, on reboot, I get this when I run an
ifconfig -a

inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast
255.255.255.255

   I'm assuming that I should have a real IP.  In
windows
I don't use any software other than setting TCP/IP to
not
use DNS and obtain an IP automatically.  I also have
Lan
Settings set to automatically detect settings and use
a
proxy is enabled.  Any ideas?  The service is
powerlink.

Ian
