In order to isolate the problem, I am booting from tiny 386BSD. Here are the relevant boot messages: wd0 <WDC AC2200F> at 0x1f0 irq 14 on isa fd0... ne0 ethernet address 08:00:00:14:03:14 at 0x300 irq 9 on isa 386BSD Base System Release 0.1 >From this message, I take it that the system is finding the ethernet adapter. According to the INSTALL.NOTES, here are the configuration commands that I issued and any responses: # ifconfig ne0 128.84.179.78 neinitstartartstartart# # # route add default 128.84.179.179 add net default: gateway 128.84.179.179 # ifconfig ne0 netmask 255.255.255.0 nest# ifconfig ne0 ne0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING> inet 128.84.179.78 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 128.84.179.255 # # ftp 128.84.179.126 stststftp: connect: Connection timed out ftp> All of the cables seem to be securely connected. I don't think any packets are reaching the multiport transceiver as the light never glows (or blinks) for the port that my adapter is connected. If you have any clues please send responses directly to me. Thanks, Marty
