Hi Jasper

Thanks! When I do ifconfig -a this is what I get:

rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast x.x.x.x
         ether 00:10:h5:42:7d:69
         media: autoselect (100baseTX) status: active
         supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX
10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX (hw loopback)
rl1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xfffffffc broadcast x.x.x.x
         ether 00:10:h5:42:7b:f1
         media: autoselect (none) status: active
         supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX
10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX (hw loopback)

Looking through the man pages for ifconfig, it appears I need to do the
following for both interfaces:
ifconfig rl0 inet media 10baseT/UTP

Could you please check my syntax so that I don't blow anything up :-)

TIA
