I am new to BSD world. After trying for a few week I have configure FreeBSD4.1 in my machine. Just one question.. I have entered the network information and check that the information is in: rc.conf ------- ifconfig_lnc0="inet 202.164.78.31 netmask 255.255.255.128" hostname="co3018910-a.myhome.com" defaultrouter="202.164.78.1" resolv.conf ----------- domain myhome.com.au nameserver 202.164.20.11 hosts ----- 127.0.0.1 localhost.myhome.com localhost 202.164.78.31 co3018910-a.myhome.com co3018910-a 202.164.78.31 co3018900-a.myhome.com. however, I could ping anyother host, but can't ping their DNS name. I reckon it's a DNS problem. But wherelse could I check and fix this problem? Thanks for advice. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
