I've managed to get myself absolutely lost. I've got everything recompiled, no network interfaces on startup. I can ifconfig sis0, the onboard ethernet, it "works." Only problem is, I can't reach anything off the local network. What am I missing? I know it's something that init calls at startup that reads resolv.conf, etc..., but I have yet to figure out what. I've been Googling for a while and reading man pages; rc, rc.conf, resolv.conf, init, etc..., and I'm stumped. If anyone could offer anything it would be much appreciated.
Probably a default route. Try "route add default _IP_of_your_router_" Or try running dhclient. Does that give you a working network config?
If you want to reconfigure your machine via a menu, run /stand/sysinstall, and you can see what changing the network config from there does to /etc/rc.conf.
