Hey all,
I think this might be a better question for a windows forum, however this problem did not exist when using a linux distro.
I have a freebsd server as a dhcp client on the network. I can get an IP address no problem, however I can not resolve the IP address using the common name (freebsd.xxx.com). Now, I didn't have this particular problem using linux so I thinking it might exist as a freebsd problem with the dhcp client, rather than a windows issue. Or possibly something that I have not set in the dhclient.conf file...if that is necessary as my dhclient.conf is blank.
I do have /etc/rc.conf set as
and as far as I can see that is all I need to do for a dhcp client.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge into correcting this?
Thanks in advance.
