ARRRRGHHHH!!! I really don't want to get mad at you personally, but this is really starting to annoy me. Virtually every time anybody reports a problem, the only thing they ever say is "it doesn't work." WHAT DOESN'T WORK EXACTLY!?! Describe the problem(s)!! Show us examples!! Show us error messages!! Does it catch fire?! Does it spit pea soup at you and speak in tongues?! Does it lie around the house all day and refuse to cut its hair and get a job!? WHAT!! You have not explained exactly what is going wrong. You have not explained what it is that you're trying to do which isn't working. You have not explained how you came to the conclusion that the card "isn't working." Show us what happens if you type 'ping 192.168.100.1'. Don't attempt to paraphrase the error messages: quote them exactly. Does ping not illustrate the problem accurately? Fine: choose another example and show us the results. -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (212) 854-6020 | System Manager, Master of Unix-Fu Work: wp...@ctr.columbia.edu | Center for Telecommunications Research Home: wp...@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu | Columbia University, New York City ============================================================================= "It is not I who am crazy; it is I who am mad!" - Ren Hoek, "Space Madness" ============================================================================= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
