Hi Boyd,

Tks for your advice.

> 1. Configure in /etc/conf.d/net

/etc/conf.d/net is a file

# cat /etc/conf.d/net
config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.0.255" )
routes_eth0=( "default gw 192.168.0.1" )
config_eth0=( "dhcp" )

> 2. Symlink net.$IFACE to net.lo
net.lo is on /etc/init.d/

What is "net.$IFACE"?  Tks.

3. Start/Stop/Query via /etc/init.d/net.$IFACE

I could be thinking about testing (since I run ~amd64) and this may not 
apply to stable, but have a look at /etc/conf.d/net.example and make sure 
your configuration is correct.

If you think it is correct, please provide the output of:
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
and
grep -Ev '^[[:space:]]*(#|$)' /etc/conf.d/net
