Dear Michael, [kjkoster@saffron ~]$ ifconfig bge0 bge0: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu = 1500 = options=3D8009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,LINKSTAT= E> ether 00:e0:81:32:ed:b4 inet 91.196.169.165 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 91.196.169.167 inet 91.196.169.166 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 91.196.169.166 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX = <full-duplex,flowcontrol,rxpause,txpause>) status: active [kjkoster@saffron ~]$ fgrep bge0 /etc/rc.conf=20 ifconfig_bge0=3D"inet 91.196.169.165 netmask 255.255.255.248" ifconfig_bge0_alias0=3D"91.196.169.166 netmask 255.255.255.255" That broadcast address and netmask look wrong for sure. Should I just change that to 255.255.255.248 as well?
