I am new to FreeBSD and everything about UNIX. I recently added a FreeBSD machine to my network. It has a few interesting problems. It can ping itself. However, when I try to ping anyone on or outside of my network it takes an extremely long time. Around 60000-100000ms. It can even do nslookups on other machines while talking to my other UNIX server that came to me ready to turn on. However, I cannot ping it from any machine on or outside of my network. We had similar problem with the other UNIX machine when we first used it. Our UNIX guru is now gone and I am learning the basics. Can you please lend me a hand?

Sincerely,

Chris Ragland,
IT System Administrator,
