Why can't ping

[Chris Haulmark]

Hello!
> I configure ed0 when I install FreeBSD7.0,like follows:
> Host:test.example.com
> Domain:test.com
> IPv4 GateWay: 172.18.0.1
> Name server: 172.18.0.250
> IPv4 Address: 172.18.0.19
> Netmask:255.255.255.0

I noticed you are using ed0 as the interface?

There is no ed in FreeBSD.

This is your interface - le0.

It shows that your le0 interface has not been assigned with the network
information
that you listed.

Try again but use le0 as your interface instead.
