Re: IPv4 loopback - solved
Disregard - I found the 'network_interfaces' line of rc.conf was lacking lo0. I added it back in and it seems to be booting correctly. unless you are sure you need the 'network_interfaces' line in rc.conf I would comment it out. the default value for it in 6.2 is 'auto' and I have never seen that not work. I commented it out, and it rebooted with the proper configuration. The strange thing is I installed the default configuration, did not add in the 'network_interfaces' line manually, and have not edited the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file. So I'm not sure how it got broken in the first place. Bottom line is all is up and running now. Thanks! LtCol Keith E.

IPv4 loopback - solved
Disregard - I found the 'network_interfaces' line of rc.conf was lacking lo0. I added it back in and it seems to be booting correctly. Sorry for the bandwidth! Keith While trying to configure ntp, I discovered that my IPv4 loopback was not being configured. I can manually restart it with 'ifconfig lo0 add 127.0.0.1', however, it does not survive a reboot. Here's the output of ipconfig following boot: rl0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 options=8VLAN_MTU inet 192.168.0.100 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:08:54:dd:65:8d media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active plip0: flags=108810POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,NEEDSGIANT mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 16384 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 and after manually configuring: rl0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 options=8VLAN_MTU inet 192.168.0.100 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:08:54:dd:65:8d media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active plip0: flags=108810POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,NEEDSGIANT mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 16384 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 What do I need to configure to get it to come up at bootup?
