When I do, I get:
em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=19b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4>
ether 00:1b:21:1b:fd:bd
inet6 fe80::21b:21ff:fe1b:fdbd%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
inet 192.168.1.105 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
I still get no connectivity until i run "dhclient em0" which gives me:
em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=19b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4>
ether 00:1b:21:1b:fd:bd
inet6 fe80::21b:21ff:fe1b:fdbd%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
inet 192.168.1.105 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
adding what I guess is called an alias 10.0.0.2 ip?!?! I'm not that much
of an expert in these matters, and I'm a bit puzzled why, at first
(before calling dhclient), it can't resolve addresses eventhough
"/etc/resolv.conf" contains all my dns's.
