Hello,

I am new to bsd and i am usign bsd. I have manually setup my internet in the
rc.conf as:

hostname="bsdBOX.bsd.serversunited.com"
ifconfig_dc0="inet 192.168.1.95 netmask 255.255.255.0"

and i am having problems looking up hostnames. This is what is in my
resolv.conf

domain darkorb.net
search darkorb.net
nameserver 216.118.116.101
nameserver 66.96.193.2
nameserver 66.96.194.2

This is also in my other server which is gentoo linux and have been using
this configuration for a while. I have no clue whats wrong. I have been on
the freebsd website looking for docs. I found some on setting up the network
but nothing on hostname lookup.

Please help,
Tilly
