> is there an way to reboot the ed0 whit out having to boot the hole os? > im sick of booting evry time i want to change ip on my box :/ First, this is not the right forum for asking technical questions. The would be the FreeBSD- questions list. However, before posting there, be sure to read the relevant sections of the FreeBSD Handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/), the relevant man pages (use "man -k <keyword>" to find the relevant page if unsure), and search the FreeBSD mailing list archives. Second, there are *very* few reasons to reboot a Unix operating system. This is *not* Windows where moving the mouse requires a reboot. If you are rebooting more oftern you change hardware, then you are doing something wrong. Time to do some reading. :) Third, read the ifconfig man page: man ifconfig Pay particular attention to the up/down commands. You can change, add/delete IPs on your NICs at will, no need to restart anything. :) HTH, Freddie fcash@bigfoot.com Linux is for people who hate Windows. FreeBSD is for people that like UNIX. -- unknown To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
