Hi,

> This is the relevent rc.conf:
> -----------------------------
> ### Basic network options: ###
> hostname="outpost.nada.org"	# Set this!

First, do you have outback.nada.org (or whatever it was) registered as a
domain name?  What network device do you have (other than lo and tun) -
those are just the loopback and serial port devices.  Do you have a
network card?  If so you need a line that contains it like:

network_interfaces="de0 lo0"   

where here my de is my network card.  You'll also need to add your IP
address to this as I showed before w/ an ifconfig line:

ifconfig_de0="inet 153.90.192.177  netmask 255.255.255.0"
