Dear friends,
I have a Pentium with FreeBSD 2.1.0. 

When I was school months ago, My PC with 3C503 (I guess) ethernet
card worked fine for network accessing. Now I don't have 3C503, but
I have SMC8416T (16 bit) ethernet card with twisted-pair connection to
an ethernet hub, which is part of my private network system.
 Each time I boot my PC, I always get the following error message:

    writing to routing socket: Networking is unreachable
    syslogd: bind: cann't assign requested addree.

The command netstat -rn gives me nothing.
In fact, ps -aux tells me that routed and syslogd are dead
during booting.

Here are some related informations:
 /etc/hosts contains
127.0.0.1               localhost supanee
192.168.0.2             supanee loghost
192.168.0.1             ultralean

/etc/sysconfig contains
hostname="supanee"
defaultdomainname=NO
network_interfaces="ed0 lo0"
ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.0.2  netmask 255.255.255.0"
static_routes="multicast loopback"
route_multicast="224.0.0.0 -netmask 0xf0000000 -interface ${hostname}"
route_loopback="${hostname} localhost"
defaultrouter=NO
routedflags=-s

/etc/host.conf contains
hosts


Any help, hints, and suggestions will be appreciated.
