Hi All,

Following your advice I created /etc/ifconfig.ex0, inet 10.10.1.5 and mak=
s
255.255.255.0.  Then set /etc/rc.conf defaultroute to same 10... as it is=
 the
ip of my router.  I then set /etc/resolv.conf to domain petrah.tnc and
nameserver to 10.1.11.33 the dns server.

dhclient now reports:
listening on BPF/ex0/00:10:4b:d2:b9:b4  My nic
Sending on the addr above.
dhcpdiscover on ex0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6
can't connect to sysconf socket: No such file or directory.

What file is missing?

BTW dhclient is yes in /etc/rc.conf
