I am new to FREEBSD and trying 5.3 on my compaq presario 2190US laptop.  After 
a fight I got the CD and everything running. Now my dns resolutions keep 
timing out.  I do not see anything on the errata, can someone point me in a 
direction to do some light reading or to a patch.  The problem seems simular 
to a BIND problem on my openBSD NAT, but I found a source patch in Nov..
