Thanks for all the quick replies concerning the Xwindows 
It started up ok ,I need to adjust the screen size a little, but looks good anyway.

I guess I need to first get mail running so I don't have to go back and forth to Win98 in order to ask questions on this list.

I have four machines here, my goal is to convert them all to FreeBSD - first, this machine, being a client.  I have the LAN card working(I can Ping the other machines in the LAN) , but need to change the DNS name to match the others in tha LAN network. How can I edit my Network/Lan Card Settings?
 The  "Server" machine has a proxy to the internet. What would be the best mailer/  program  for accessing a Win98 server with a proxy? Any ideas here would be helpful.
  I also have a PCBoard BBS working (via TelNet) off the server - is it possible to get that  running under this OS? 

 thanks

Angelo
