NIC 1 is called ed0 in the kernel configuration file GENERIC, but when i do an ifconfig its called ed2. What should i call the 2nd nic in relevant files where its referred to? (eg, rc.conf) i've called it ed1 but when booting up, a message says "ed1 does not exist" what to do? this is all for a firewall. thanx you all, oscar To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
