Hi People
l downloaded FreeBSD 6.3 the other day out of curiosity..
The installation started ok but it all went wrong when it came to
connecting to the internet through my wired router
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-post.html
l'm really not sure what entries to put in fig 2-29 that will allow my
connection.
My email address is g7mjv at btinternet.com
My router's address is 192.168.1.1 and running ifconfig on my linux
machine gives the following:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:01:6C:E2:58:25 inet

Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated
