Dear All; I'm trying to get the server to connect to the internet. There error message I get when I try and ping my gateway is "ping: send to: host is down" In my host file I have the following: host file 127.0.0.1 localhost.mydomain localhost ipaddresofserver mydomain.myhost myhost ipaddresofserver mydomain.myhost host.conf file hosts bind networks file your-net 127. your-network 255.255.255 subnet1 127.0.1 alais1 subnet2 127.0.2 alais2 rc.conf file #I have 2 Ethernet interfaces though I'm not using this machine as a gateway #The fxp0 is an Intel 82559 built in Ethernet controller #The sf0 is an Adaptec 64 bit 66mhz Ethernet controller in a 64 bit 66mhz slot defaultrouter="mygatewayip" ifconfig_fxp0="inet myipaddress netmask 255.255.255.248" ifconfig_sf0="inet myipaddress netmask 255.255.255.248" inetd_enable="YES" kern_securelevel_enable="NO" linux_enable="YES" moused_enable="YES" nfs_reserverd_port_only="YES" portmap_enable="YES" router_enable="YEs" sendmail_enable="YES" sshd_enable="YES" resolve.conf domain mydomain nameserver 207.155.183.72 nameserver 206.173.119.72 nameserver 207.228.252.180 I think that's everything that someone will need to help me fix my problem. Both interfaces are up, and I'm able to ping the ipaddresofserver. Also, the log keeps displaying itself at the console prompt, how do I turn that off, it's very annoying. In other words system messages keep coming up, making it very difficult to keep track of what you are typing at the system prompt.
