Well... guess what I just did...
Anyone who is hooking up a slackware linux box to a freeBSD 5.1 system over
the parallel port, skip the hand book all together and add the following
lines to your /etc/rc.conf file,
interfaces="lo0 xl0 lp0"
ifconfig_xl0="inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xffff0000"
ifconfig_lp0="inet 192.168.1.5 192.168.1.9 netmask 0xffffff00 link0"
The 'link0' is the key, as it changes the order in which packets are observed,
so that the BSD machine reads em like a linux box!
Here's to answering one's own questions by typing 'shutdown -r now' :)
Rob.
