Wait a sec. Assuming that the data in hostname.lx0 is correct, all you need to do is rename your hostname.lx0 to hostname.xl0 and it will pick it up on reboot.

Do you have two cards in the box. Also, can you please post the contents of the relevant hostname.XXX files (where XXX is all the cards that you have configured on this machine).

What happens if you manually type
ifconfig xl0 172.25.0.2
Does that work? If so, type ifconfig again and see what the output is. It should tell you if it detected a carrier or not.

Also, do you have more than one card in your machine. I've found that OpenBSD sometimes evaluates NICs in a different order than other OSs.

Basically, ifconfig is the command to set up the NIC cards and addresses. Normally, on bootup, OpenBSD runs /etc/rc which runs other rc scripts. One of these rc scripts (/etc/rc.network) looks in the /etc directory for files named hostname.XXX where XXX is the name of your interface. In your case, the files may ne named hostname.xl0, hostname.fxp0 and hostname.fxp1. /etc/rc.network then runs /sbin/ifconfig and sets up each interface card with an IP address. Hope this clears things up.
