I am trying to get 2 NIC cards running simultaneously on my V1.5 NetBSD. Each
card will run individually on either network, but when I try to get them working
simultaneously I don't have any luck.
I have packet forwarding enabled in the kernel config file and sysctl says that
net.inet.ip.forwarding is 1.
Initially I don't want a firewall functionality or router functionality, just
want to access the machines resources (SAMBA and NFS) from two private networks.
Only the first interface enabled ever responds to pings, even if I manually
disable it and make sure the second one is on.
At the very least I would think that each interface would respond to a ping
from its own network.
Do I have to configure firewall functionality in order to get both interfaces
to work? I will ultimately get there, but for now just want minimal dual interface
support.

Any help appreciated.
