In /etc I have the file resolv.conf with the single line: nameserver 10.0.0.10 which is my DNS server. I also have a host.conf file with: #Auto-generated from nsswitch.conf, do not edit hosts bind and for reference nsswitch.conf has: hosts: files dns Since I am using DHCP which is on my NT box, I have options set for a WINS server and Node-type of H-Node. I think I know the answer but I'll ask, does this affect FreeBSD's Network configuration in some way? > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd- > questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of charles pelletier > Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 10:34 AM > To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > Subject: Re: Question on FreeBSD name resolution > > You need to create a resolv.conf file.
