This is usually a sign that an include file has been omitted, which points to an error in the config file. Presumably you meant if_de.c? There isn't an if_dc.c file in that directory. This is the driver for the DEC 21040 family of Ethernet cards. If you do not have such a card, you can work around this by commenting out the line that says "device de0". > Where #### is a four-digit number, such as 1845. These will be the line numbers in if_de.c where the error occurred. -- James Raynard, Edinburgh, Scotland james@jraynard.demon.co.uk http://www.freebsd.org/~jraynard/
