Hi again!

For info, uname -a:
FreeBSD outpost.nada.org 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Fri Aug
7 10:55:47 EDT 1998
beaupran@outpost.nada.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/HALL  i386

I recently installed apache on my system. When I try to connect to my own
server using http://localhost , everything's fine and it's connecting.
However, when I try http://outpost.nada.org (see above) it says:

A network error occurred, the server may be down or unreachable...

There is nothin relevent in the apache logs...

It's been 6 months since I have FreeBSD installed on my system. When I did
it, I didn't really cared about hostnames and DNSs, simply because I
didn't know what they meant, but now I'm just confused... I include here
relevant files (resolv.conf, hosts, host.conf...)
--------------------------------
Resolv.conf file:
--------------------------------
domain	        outpost.nada.org
nameserver	132.204.2.103
nameserver	132.204.2.102
# These two DNS are necessary to my ppp connection

--------------------------------
Hosts file:
--------------------------------
# $Id: hosts,v 1.6 1996/03/20 15:29:10 adam Exp $
127.0.0.1		localhost localhost.my.domain
10.0.0.1		outpost.nada.org        nada
#132.204.46.26   derby.jsp.umontreal.ca
#132.204.46.25   epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca

--------------------------------
Hosts.conf file:
--------------------------------
# $Id: host.conf,v 1.2 1993/11/07 01:02:57 wollman Exp $
# Default is to use the nameserver first
bind
# If that doesn't work, then try the /etc/hosts file
hosts
# If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line
#nis

--------------------------------
networks file (I don't know what
this is really and never changed it)
--------------------------------
#	@(#)networks	5.1 (Berkeley) 6/30/90
#
# Your Local Networks Database
#
your-net	127				# your comment
your-netmask	255.255.255			# subnet mask for your-net

#
# Your subnets
#
subnet1		127.0.1		alias1		# comment 1
subnet2		127.0.2		alias2		# comment 2

#
# Internet networks (from nic.ddn.mil)
#
----------------------------------
End of included files
----------------------------------

Please, any comment or example or anything is welcome...
