Sometime within the last month, ifconfig has changed so that the following rc.conf entries do not properly initialise the second (in this case fxp0) interface.
network_interfaces="auto" ifconfig_ti0="inet 10.10.10.221 netmask 255.255.0.0" ifconfig_fxp0="inet 10.10.10.222 netmask 255.255.0.0" defaultrouter="10.10.0.1" hostname="test.servers.nat" there is still a sysctl knob # sysctl -a |grep arp net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_wrong_iface: 0 that deals with multiple interfaces on the same net, so seems that this behaviour should be allowed, whether frowned upon or not. I ran into this this morning after brining up this test box and installing a new world onto it (it had been sleeping for about a month when it had a previous 4.5 STABLE world). -- ---------------------------------------- Robin P.
