During installation however, i cant get dhcp to configure my network right. I subscribe to AT&T@home service, which uses dhcp. With this service i need send the dhcpd my hostname that they give me. The way i do this in Linux is: dhcpcd -D -h I assume this is for some sort of authentication purpose. Anyway i cant figure out how to set up the dhcpclient in the install process to do this. Any help is much appreciated Erich Heine To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
