Hmmm... how 'bout building the isc-dhcp2 port instead. It's docs seem quite good. It's in /usr/ports/net/isc-dhcp2 if you've got ports. > Yeah. I was supposed to add that info in /etc/resolv.conf. Right? e.g. Nah, the DHCP client SW should take care of all this. At least the ISC one does for me. Now that you mention it, I'm not sure what it would config with this info unless it monkeyed with resolv.conf. It won't hurt to put that info there, but it seems like it shouldn't be necessary.
