And how could I make the card work ? Hi! Well, as the output states, your arguments to ifconfig are incorrect. to check if the card is recognized: dmesg |grep rl0 when it appears, do a: ifconfig -a to see, if a rl0 interface is there. to simply configure it, do: ifconfig rl0 192.168.1.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 shall be sufficient. To make it permanent during bootup, insert in /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.1.11 netmask 255.255.255.0" HTH Olaf -- Olaf Hoyer ohoyer@gaff.hhhr.ision.net Fuerchterliche Erlebniss geben zu raten, ob der, welcher sie erlebt, nicht etwas Fuerchterliches ist.
