Here's the relevant part of my rc.conf: # Network settings network_interfaces="lo0 rl0 rl1" ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" ifconfig_rl0="inet 10.0.0.150/24 polling" ifconfig_rl1="inet 192.168.0.1/24 polling" HTH, Roland -- R.F.Smith http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/ [plain text _non-HTML_ PGP/GnuPG encrypted/signed email much appreciated] pgp: 1A2B 477F 9970 BA3C 2914 B7CE 1277 EFB0 C321 A725 (KeyID: C321A725)
