Have you tried putting the hostnames in /etc/hosts? Maybe you can configure local DNS with two domains, one which is the hostname of your client and one which is the hostname of the smarthost. (Something like client.company1.com and smarthost.company2.com.) The domains probably need A and NS records. Then make the local DNS the first one in resolv.conf. -Hanspeter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
