I am having a problem with the pcmcia nic (network card) Freebsd picks up the card alright, but i can not make it configure the card at startup, so services like apache error out i have tried a few different things i seen, adding lines to rc.conf like such: ifconfig_ed1="inet my.ip.address.hidden netmask my.netmask." then seen that i should use pcmcia_ifconfig="inet blah.blah.blah.balh netmask my.netmask" and it doesnt seem to pick it up i have also tried compiling the newcards kernel, and it doesnt seem to help either.. the card is an IC-Card (really really generic, seems to be happy with the linksys 16bit drive ed1 thou) any suggestions or resources that may help? thanks in advance EliteTek To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
