I presume the rest of your lan is on the 192.168.254.* range?
Yes, it is. I set my ethernet address as 192.168.254.3
Do you have any firewalls enabled on any of the box's?
Yes, I've got a firewall enabled on the linux box which works as server to provide the internet connection to the other lan's boxes. But since I installed the LAN, I haven't got any kind of ping/ethernet troubles with other operative systems like Linux or Windows.
Can you ping the FreeBSD box from other box's?
No, I can't.. :-((
What does a packet sniffer show when you try to ping it or get ping'd from other box's? Are packets actually being send and recieved?
I've tried with tcpdump But I can't receive any packets.
Is the switch/hub dodgy? Try chaning ports to a port you know to work.
I've tried to change port but nothing works, I still can't ping any machine.
Is there any encryption running over the network? (ie, ipsec and the like)
No, there isn't
Only the "status" (reading the ifconfig -a output) of my dc0 ethernet adapter seems to work. If I detach the ethernet cable off the adapter, status changes from "active" to "no carrier".
Thankss again for helping me with this trouble! ^_^
