I want to build a firewall for my network. I can't help much with the firewall since I'm struggling with that myself. :) However, from what you're saying, it sounds like you have support for both cards compiled into your kernel. All that has to be done now is to edit your /etc/rc.conf file and 1) add "ed1" or whatever the card's name is to the list of interfaces on the "network_interfaces" line, and 2) add a configuration line for it that will configure its IP address and subnet mask. Assuming your card is ed1, the line would start off with: ifconfig_ed1="inet x.x.x.x netmask y.y.y.y" where x.x.x.x is the IP address, and y.y.y.y is the subnet mask. Hope that helps some! ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.
