"status: no carrier" when you do an ifconfig indicates a layer 1 or physical problem. You need to try plugging in each of the other ethernet ports on that server and checking ifconfig to see if the status changes. As obvious as this seems (and sorry if you've already tried this) I have some supermicro servers with Intel nic's and FreeBSD 5.3-R has them mixed up. The ports are labeled 1 and 2 on the case but FreeBSD calls ethernet port 2 em0 and ethernet port 1 em1. Maybe that is what you are seeing here. steve > > Ifconfig shows for em0: > > > em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > > options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM> > > inet 10.0.0.9 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 10.255.255.255 > > ether 00:11:2F:0F:80:f4 > > media: Ethernet autoselect > > status: no carrier
