I'm trying to get PPP set up on my FreeBSD box.  I've got it
working except that I have to use IP addresses instead of
names.  That tells me that I don't have DNS available.  In
looking at the /etc directory I note that there is no 
resolv.conf file present.  Should there be; or, am I just
supposed to create one?  I'm concerned that not having at
least a sample resolv.conf file present in /etc may indicate
that I don't have some package or something that I need
installed.  Is that the case?  TIA for any input.
