I have a FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT box with some problems.

(a)  I recompiled the kernel to add support for natd, but now I can't access 
the machine's IP address (209.183.76.22) via http, ftp, telnet, ping, etc. 
from the LAN or from the box itself.  However, I can access it from the box 
itself by telnet localhost or ftp localhost or lynx http://localhost/ or the 
like. I commented everything out in /etc/hosts.allow except ALL : ALL : 
allow.

(b)  I accidentally copied the files in /compat/linux/lib to /usr/X11R6/lib, 
/usr/local/lib, and /usr/lib.  Now X will not load any window manager (but I 
can issue commands with Alt+F2).  I've tried both kvm and fvwm.  Also, emacs 
goes berzerk on exit.  In one telnet session (before I recompiled the 
kernel), emacs ran okay, but after I exited, FreeBSD didn't echo any of the 
letters I typed at the prompt.  I reinstalled the bin distribution, the 
XFree86 distributions, and emacs, but it still doesn't work.

(c)  When I use pine to try to send mail, the following error message pops 
up at the bottom of the screen:
[Mail not sent: <address@hostname.com>...Unable to check MX records for 
recipient host hostname.com]

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
