Report of a number of problems

["elekktretterr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <elekktretterr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for answering so quickly, I will try that. I have unfortunately
discovered more problems. DragonFly (also FreeBSD 6.0) cannot
communicate with the rest of the world. My NIC is Netgear FA311, which
has a National Semiconductor DP83815 chip in it. I am able to ping
127.0.0.1, also able to ping 192.168.1.50 (NIC's IP), but unable to ping
everything else including the gateway. (192.168.1.1)

once i do "ping 192.168.1.1" nothing happens, no time out, or no route
to host, no destination unreachable and so on. tcpdump does not report
any activity whatsoever. Logs do not indicate what the problem is,
however I did notice my NIC sometimes goes to promiscuous mode in
DragonFly. Theres positively nothing wrong with my configuration, or
wrong with the NIC itself, since it works perfect in Linux and OpenBSD.

I will when I can fetch the source and recompile. 

Or is there a boot-time command to do it also?
