Dear readers,

A few weeks ago I installed FreeBSD an I liked it very much, its easier than
Linux I think. No problems with installing/configuring  X or ssh or Postfix.

My questions:
I compiled a new (lighter) kernel and it works great but I found the path
mentioned in dmesg or `uname -v' a bit strange, its the place of compile:

peter@k7:~:0>uname -v
FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE #0: Fri Oct 24 01:12:56 CEST 2003
root@k7.localdomain:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/MYKERNEL-K6

Does that mean I cannot remove the old kernel-source?
I did a `configure MYKERNEL-K6;make depend;make; make install' just as
mentioned in the on-line FreeBSD handbook.
Why isn't the path something with /boot/kernel?

arp:
Frequently I get this message on the first console:
arplookup 213.84.240.105 failed: host is not on local network

I searched the inter-net, but I did not found a satisfying answer.
213.84.240.105 is hanging on the inter-net, an FreeBSD has a local IP-adres.
So why this arplookup? What causes this lookup?

With kind regards,

	Peter Terpstra
