I've often wondered this, but why is it that every network card has a different 'name'.
xl0, rl0, vr0, ed0, etc. etc. etc I tried simlinking them to a common name (I have xl0, rl0, and ed0 active in my current machine). linked to eth0, eth1, eth2 (didn't work). However, it would be nice if they all had a common name to the end user.. Primarily, me.. Especially when you rip out one card, install another, then the name changes on you... -- Rod Taylor Proud Member of Team OS/2 User of FreeBSD & KDE To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
