I am having problems with the FTP install on FreeBSD 2.1.0.
After dialing, connecting, and logging in to my provider, I switch 
back to the installation program, hit ENTER, and a message 
similar to "attempting to resolve ftp.freebsd.org" appears.  I put the 
correct nameserver IP address in the nameserver box on the PPP setup 
screen.

For host name I use: infohwy.com 
  (I tried dquinn but, the installation 
  forced it to dquinn.infohwy.com)
For domain name I use: infohwy.com

Here is my login session log:

I use dynamic IP addressing, so I let the installation detect address 
(0).

my nameserver's IP addr is 198.65.146.2
I put that in the nameserver box.

I even tried using the URL addressing ftp://192... etc.  I get a
"cannot connect" message.

I REALLY like the idea of an FTP install, but, I just cannot seem
to get the kinks worked out.  Any help would be appreaciated.

Thanks!
