I get past the DHCP configurations, and then it hangs on "looking up host ftp.freebsd.org." I can ping the (soon-to-be) FreeBSD box that I'm installing on (using the IP information retrieved from the DHCP server). I can also ftp to ftp.freebsd.org from another client (winnt) on the same LAN segment as the (potential) FreeBSD box. But the FreeBSD box-to-be can't seem to see ftp.freebsd.org (or ftp2.freebsd.org or ftp5.freebsd.org). Any ideas what's going on? The NIC must be working, since I can get the client address from the DHCP server. The router is working fine, since I can ftp to ftp.freebsd.org from other clients on the same switch. I'm stumped.
