The Handbook is no real help on this. I had this working correctly

Sam,
   You're missing some reference to a wireless card / wireless protocol 
in your kernel config somewhere. Could you please provide your config at 
a URL or include relevant sections of your config (wireless card, etc).

Man, I feel like a real twat. Didn't realize that you attached your 
kernel config .

   ural(4) needs wlan as well as a few other directives added in a 
kernel config (see 
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=uralapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+6.1-RELEASEformat=html).
   If you don't need that wireless driver, you should comment out that 
line (it's down in the USB section).
