Did anyone see a good how-to? If you not using DNS server on you network, you need to edit the host file on both systems on FreeBSD as you know has this in /etc and on Windows it is %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc - just remember to keep them in sync, Both Windows and FreeBSD can use the same hosts file. Longterm solution, setup a DNS server. HTH :) -- Kimi
