Hi all...
here's another ticklish one. I  followed the excellent ppp & net 
tutorial and set up for my DEC 21041 card accordingly
but.... ifconfig -a 
....does not report the internet address I'd assigned 
it in rc.conf 
it doesn't report being UP or RUNNING ( this box is currently 
isolated..i don't have the LAN connected presently though...does it 
matter?) but the inet info is missing....
Any ideas. Here is the rc.conf file.#!/bin/sh
