the Am79C973 adapter attached to NAT (default) works for me in 
Virtualbox.

if you compiled your own kernel you need to enable the correnct 
network device driver. it's an AMD <something> if i remember 
correctly in ethernet 10 100.

if you are using the stock kernel, it's already enabled. all you need to 
do is:

(and make sure that the /etc/rc.d/network is running)

history! So are we. But ZFS will live forever.
