Hi, I am fairly new to FreeBSd and network administration so this might be down to my ignorance, but I am having a problem because the vtnet0 interface is not being created on my server a boot time, and I can't set it up using either "dhclient vtnet0" or several different attempts at ifconfig (all of which return that the interface vtnet09 does not exist). I have tried adding "ifconfig_vtnet0=" lines to my rc,conf file and rebooting (using either DHCP , the IP address given to my machine by my router or my dynamic domain name), none of which have worked. Looking at the boot messages, there is no sign of any failed attempt to create vtnet0, though Lo0 and Em0 are both created set "up" and work perfectly well, I realise this is probably a foolish question, and the answer is staring me in the face somewhere, but I promise I have spent quite a bit of time searching for an answer and can not find one (the only mention I can find of similar problems is when setting up a jail, and nothing there seems to solve the problem).
