Hello

I am currently trying to install 6 IBM "Personal Computer 750" machines
(running FreeBSD 2.2.8) each equipped with an Intel Etherexpress NIC.
However when I check the network configuration on each host they all
have the same MAC address. I have tried to put one of the NICs in
another PC (a clone machine) and it writes the same address as in the
other 6 cases.
Then I tried to use the "Diagnostic tool" for the NIC and it prompts
different MAC addresses for each NIC (the one reported by FreeBSD is not
one of them). When I try to perform an "arp -n <hostname>" I get the
error "no entry".

Can You please help me?

My kernel config file looks as follows.


Best Regards
Jesper Krogh
