I changed fstab so that my data partition would supposely mount before root,
moved/symlink'd rc.conf, and rebooted. This did not allow rc.conf to be

How do you think fstab will be read to know to mount some other
partition first, when root (where fstab lives) is not yet mounted?

Hi,
I'm running 5.3 STABLE.
I need to change the MAC address of my PC.
I know it can be done like this:
ifconfig rl0 ether 11:22:33:44:55:66
So I guessed I could make life a little easier by
adding this in my /etc/rc.conf file as:
ifconfig_rl0=inet 192.168.123.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
this in my /etc/rc.conf file as:
ifconfig_rl0=inet 192.168.123.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
ether 11:22:33:44:55:66
However, this does not seem to work. No IP address
is assigned to the LAN card after bootup.
Apparently something is wrong here.
Any idea how I can do this at bootup?

Running 4.10-STABLE as of today. I have the following in /etc/rc.conf:
gif_interfaces=gif0
gifconfig_gif0=A.B.C.D W.X.Y.Z
ifconfig_gif0=inet 192.168.101.1 192.168.102.1 netmask 0x
After a boot I see:
# ifconfig gif0
gif0: flags=8051UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 1280
To answer my own question, I also needed to add gif0 to network_interfaces:
network_interfaces=xl0 xl1 lo0 gif0

Hi,
When I need to change the IP settings, I usually go over the rc.conf
directly (as root) to change the IP settings. The question is that
once I change the settings I need to re-boot the system in order to
the change be working.
Is there any way that I can apply the changes without re-booting

Read the manual pages for ifconfig.

This should work fine.
/etc/rc.conf:
ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.102.14/24
ifconfig_fxp1=inet 192.168.102.15/32

Ifconfig was mentioned. You can also reinitialize your system
with shutdown(8). Shutdown will bring the system in single-user state
(will kill all processes) and when you exit that, you'll have all changes
made to rc.conf, active. Use shutdown now and then just exit the
single-user shell.
Cheers
A couple of people suggested to read the ifconfig man page. I do
understand the ifconfig, and I can change the IP settings using
ifconfig without re-booting the system.
What I wondered was a way of editing rc.conf directly and how I can it
be working without re-boot the system. As Nikos suggested

FreeBSD does not let you configure two network interfaces on the
rc.conf directly and how I can it
be working without re-boot the system. As Nikos suggested, it would
not be a good way if there is only one way to go for it by using
'shutdown now' command; as it kills all the running processes.
I believe in FreeBSD 5.x, soon to become -stable, all you need to
do
Except that the man page for ifconfig will tell you nothing about the
correctness of your entries in rc.conf. For that you have to reboot. Most of
us here can glance at them and say yea or nay, but most new users can't. And
the ifconfig man page is not really newbie material either.

Let me second this. It is entirely possible that a script
expecting to start networking makes assumptions about the
