Is there any way that this NetBIOS name can be assigned in the 'extra = options' section of the Ethernet install setup, or elsewhere in the = initial setup screens? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Kevin Smyth ksmyth@taima.on.ca ------=_NextPart_000_0031_01C0A306.AACD81E0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.2614.3500" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hi there;</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I'm having troubles with an FTP = installation of=20 FreeBSD UNIX over a cable modem;</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>the cable ISP requires that a NetBIOS = name=20 (specified by the ISP) be assigned to the computer before access to the = network=20 can be gained.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Is there any way that this NetBIOS name = can be=20 assigned in the 'extra options' section of the Ethernet install setup, = or=20 elsewhere in the initial setup screens?</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Any help would be greatly = appreciated.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Many thanks,</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Kevin Smyth</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial = size=3D2>ksmyth@taima.on.ca</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML> ------=_NextPart_000_0031_01C0A306.AACD81E0-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
