Others have already suggested several workarounds. Another possibility is to set only the IP via rc.conf: ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.2.12 netmask 255.255.255.0" And set the MAC address with an interface start script which should be named /etc/start_if.rl0 in your case and contain this line: ifconfig rl0 ether 00:02:4f:0a:ce:f3 Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co.
