if you are getting your static ip-address from the dhcp server, it will just work. if not you will need something like this in your /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" or take a look at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/config-network-setup.html hth, toni -- Wer es einmal so weit gebracht hat, dass er nicht | toni at stderror dot at mehr irrt, der hat auch zu arbeiten aufgehoert | Toni Schmidbauer -- Max Planck |
