It takes about a minute, and comes back with
default: Host name lookup failure

this already seems to be happening:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:BD:53:D1:DB:43
inet addr:192.168.0.200 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Maybe my freebsd isn't playing gateway like it should be? how can I
check that?
thanks
