how can i put a name to my box? 
and how can i doit without ill efects  or misconfiguration, 
what happens is that i can't (i don't know how) setup host name
localhost alias and a basic loopback configuration for a 
stand alone freebsd machine (no lan, no other boxes atached)
just a 56 k usRobotics modem (working) on ppp connection to
my ISP telnor.net 200.23.249.1 and 200.23.249.3 if somebody 
please can help me, i'll send him more info about my box.

my native language is not english, and sometimes i can't see
what is an example and what is a "do it like this" i mean:
english explanations and english keywords for a task
sometimes i can't see difference. on man and technical readings
is kind of tricky to me, but explanations or "howto for dummies"
are easier to grab could somebody help me?
