Hi, all: = In setting up my FreeBSD machine in my LAN, I only assigned it an ip addres= s and a netmask, just as the handbook said (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_U= S.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/config-network-setup.html). = But after that, it can identify the proxy server's name even i didn't give = it an explicit DNS server ip address. (It can ping proxy.abc.com) And I fou= nd the gateway is also found automatically by the machine. (It is automatic= ally added into the line beginnin with "defaultrouter=3D") Is it designed behavior? I can't understand that. :( Regards, Xu Qiang
