There are two solutions: 1) (Untested by me) ifconfig_dc0="DHCP media 100baseTX" 2) put the media change in a separate shell script, and throw it unter /usr/local/etc/rc.d, so that it will be executed later on something like: >cat dc0-speedchange.sh #!/bin/sh ifconfig dc0 media 100baseTX HTH Olaf -- Olaf Hoyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fuerchterliche Erlebniss geben zu raten, ob der, welcher sie erlebt, nicht etwas Fuerchterliches ist.
