<< Can the FreeBSD machine ping itself?

I can ping both the localhost (127.0.0.1) and the pn0 NIC card (192.168.1.3)
 
<< Do you have IPFIREWALL compiled into your kernel?
 
No, I don't...I'll try that. I'm not running ipfw though as I'm not planning 
for a firewall, but I'll try that. I'm crazy at this point ~8o)
Thanks!
