Hi, I had to change the netmask of my ethernet card. So I modified /etc/rc.conf. But for that to take effect, I should reboot. Now, how can I avoid a reboot for such a small change? I had a look at the ifconfig command, to set the interface manually, but I was completely lost by the amount of settings and options there. I hoped that an easy command as: "/etc/rc.network restart" would do the trick, but that didn't work. Can someone help me out here? Thanks, Rob.
