I found /etc/sysconfig, and learned vi sufficiently to edit it a bit, but where in this file do I place the DNS (as called in DOS/NT land, don't know what you call it.) The domain name server IP address? I set it up thusly in Netconfig Section: hostname=asa386-20.camel.com [name of machine BSD is on] defaultdomainname=camel.com [my domain name] tcp_extensions=YES weak..etc=NO network_interfaces="ep0" [there was an lo0 in there but it kept coming up [with a 10Base2 address which messed everything up...my system is [10BaseT...so I deleted it] ifconfig_ep0="inet 204.251.34.195 netmask 255.255.255.224" [inet is the [IP of the BSD box, netmask is my ISP-assigned netmask] I chose "NO" for gateway and all else, router=routed. Anyone tell me where the DNS value should go?
