I'm having a bit of a problem and need some help if possible.

Problem:
I have an intranet set up with FreeBSD on a 486 pc with a surrounding
network of Win95 pcs.  I can telnet the server by IP address but not by
domainname.  I can ping everyone by address but get a bad address when I
ping to the domain name.  I thought I had everything set up . . .
In the etc/sysconfig I have hostname="www.c-mode.net" and I have the
defaultdomainname="c-mode.net".
I think the networks is fine?
I think the netstart is fine?

I think everyting else is okay but I run into a wall when I try to get a
web page by the address of http://www.c-mode.net; http://199.1.1.3 works
fine but no domain name.  Is this because of the dash in c-mode? 
I am ignorant of a majority of UNIX stuff but seem to have made it this
far.
Any help or suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, Mark Wheeler
