But my problem is still there. I tried two oterh ethernet boards after I sent the previous message. These include a SMC Ultra and a 3C509. Both of them can be correctly recognized at boot time. But after I configure the interface, I still can't ping anybody. I think I should be able to ping hosts on the local ether net after I finish the "ifconfig" command, right? The error message is: "sendto: Host is down". The packets are not even sent out since a neighbour running tcpdump can't see them. Did I do something drastically wrong? Actually what I need is just a netbsd source tree. Can I somehow obtain it without installation? -- Jining Tian C.
