Old /var/db/dhclient.leases file, presumably (at least that matches the
values there, and is in the regular netblock I get from my broadband ISP).

Nothing for network_interfaces

#ifconfig_xl0="DHCP"
ifconfig_vr0="DHCP"
ifconfig_vr0="inet 213.132.119.242 netmask 255.255.255.0"

defaultrouter=213.132.119.1

The "xl0" line is from the old 3com card, and the "copy" of it is from my
attempts to make it work. The line with the "inet..." is repeated a few
times from attempts to use sysinstall to enable the card.

I think, however, that you will find that, online or in realspace, entering
an ongoing conversation and insulting the people conducting it is not a good
way of obtaining information.  --David Friedman
