Mark, While I had configured a firewall on an older ThinkPad using FreeBSD 4.4, I had trouble with it until I added the 'dynamic yes' option to natd.conf (even though my public IP is static). This is because natd.conf was being read and initialized before the network cards were initialized by pccardd. While adding the dynamic flag got it working, it was still broken for IPv6, which was the firewall's reason for being. A trip to the local computer show landed me a $50 Pentium 166 w/32MB RAM, which rocks with 2 PCI NetGear NIC's. Enjoy... =========== Michael Oliver > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark [mailto:meinreinhof@mep.nist.gov] > Sent: Monday, October 29, 2001 2:38 PM > To: Questions FreeBSD > Subject: Solved: RE: Dual 3Com PCCard NICs > > > With a little bit of experimentation, I copied pccard.conf > over to /etc/ and placed an extra config line in the working > 3Com entry and changed the original config line. > > Original: > config auto "ep" ? > > New: > config auto "ep0" ? > config auto "ep1" ? > > Don't know if this is the best way...
