When the system boots, it will read rc.conf, and then it will pass the ifconfig_inf="..." to ifconfig, so what I do is just to add ether aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff to that line: ifconfig_fxp0="inet 1.2.3.4 netmask 255.0.0.0 ether aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff" - -- Bob Bomar [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bomar.us/~bob -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCralK9Jm/aTrtdKoRAlFFAJ93Y0XL7OMbJcdhFvBxQP3XEtzP6QCeOHIQ 8m1uyAMjW8F1SW0E/HNYFBA= =d5HD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
