	I am unclear on how to resolve this problem. I have a fddi card
installed in the kernal properly, but it seems that none of the networking
software realizes I have any networking cards. Have I left out some
important configuration steps? What do I need to do to get the computer to
deal with my fddi card for networking?

	Here is my present configuration:
	1. Installed FreeBSD.
	2. Copied GENERIC kernal and inserted lines device fpa0 and pseudo
		fddi
	3. config kernal - no problems.
	4. make kernal - no problems.
	5. make install - no problems.
	6. reboot and start up the new kernal - no problems.

	That's it. The new kernal clearly recognizes the fddi card. I'm
just stumped as to how to get all the networking programs to use it.

	Any advice/help/suggestions WARMLY received!

	Thanks!

	Robert
