Greetings, I have Three workstations all of them are pretty much setup the same way. All of them use DHCP and all of them connect to the same server (I do not know what is it running as of now) The first workstation is Windows XP. It receives its IP and hostname correct basically I get 10.0.0.201 and winxp.mydomain.com as a hostname both host and IP resolve to each other correctly The second workstation is Mac OS X. It receives similar enough 10.0.0.202 and macosx.mydomain.com as a hostname both IP and hostname resolve to each other correctly. The third which is a FreeBSD 5.4-Release receives an IP address 10.0.0.203 but does not get a hostname. Well the hostname is setup in rc.conf as bsd01 but the DNS in the domain is not aware of it for some reason. The NS can resolve macosx and winxp but it cannot resolve the hostname for bsd01. Any thoughts what is going here? Thanks in advance, bazzoola
