I guess this thread is dead by now. Just thought I should tell all of you

Help...
My NIC is found during boot-up and everything appears to be correct setup,
except the darn thing won't work. I can ping 192.168.0.1 (computers local
ip - see below), but no other computers on my LAN. However, from other
computers on my LAN, I can ping this computer and get a response.
What does a netstat -finet -rn show? It sound like you don't have a

The fact that the other machines on the LAN cannot ping 192.168.0.1 is a
big difference. At this point I would start checking you network
cabling and possibly the hub/switch.

Perhaps at this point, it's a good point for you to give us a

Yes, right. Sorry, I somehow missed that point in the original post!
When you ping, do you see any activity at all on your hub/switch? I
suppose that this would minimally let you know that the card is
transmittig something.

No, I have a small light on the hub that says packet. This

Could well be. You say that it works fine under another OS? What other
OS?
What, also, is the make/model of the NIC?
Check ifconfig and compare the media line to the actual capibilities of
the
system. If it's not negiotiating properly (could a driver cause that?)

Thanks for clarifying things.
I think I understand now. Here's what I (and others as well) believe is
the root of the problem - its ipfw.
By default its got a rule that reads DENY EVERYTHING. If you run ipfw
show then it'll be right at the bottom. Unless you expressly allow
traffic with
Yeah, this is a classic example of ipfw enabled but not configured. Since
the default rule is 'Deny all', you need to add allow statements to the
config to see the network, or build a non-ipfw config (Being the internal
box, you have no need for ipfw on it)
--Adam
Nope. Kernel compiled
So, you're saying that with this configuration, you:
1] Cannot ping any hosts on the internal network
2] No internal hosts can ping the internal IP address of the g'way.
Do this for me:-
1] tail /var/log/security
2] Back-up your current ipfw ruleset - and disconnect (physically) from

I see. So there's this machine hanging off the hub that no-one else can
see, and he cannot see anyone else. Yet when booted to WinXP, he is
fine?
Forgive me and post what you get from ifconfig -au, please.

Actually, I have to apologize. I shouldn't have answered with
But I do have to ask again if there is a firewall running on the problem
box itself. My reasons for asking again, is the fact that nothing
hitting the hub, as you say, does indeed indicate that nothing leaves
the box. In cases like this, its usually because data was not *allowed*

Okay.., I see that there's no firewall support in the kernel. Well., at
the end I'd ask for you to try reloading the nic (ifconfig dc0 down /
ifconfig dc0 up) to see if that makes any difference - maybe booting to
other OS leaves the nic is some sort of state.., but that's grasping at
