I posted this to help-hurd; I thought I'd cross post here as well.

I'm also having trouble getting networking up properly. As per the Easy
Guide I tried the following:
settrans /server/socket/2 \
/hurd/pfinet --interface=eth0 --address=foo \
--gateway=foo --netmask=morefoo
but was unable to get the interface up (no link light even). I do not have
an eth0 device, but was not sure if I need one for this to work. Thinking
that I might I tried to do a "MAKEDEV eth0" which did not work.
The ethernet card works fine from the Linux side; I think it's a
3com 509b...
thanks,
dean.
