hello, I have freebsd stable setup on a pentium pc and I have a windows-95 pc connected to it through a thin ethernet connection. I have stup apche's http server on it and can telnet and get to my web pages on the server but only if i set my browser to go to the servers' ip address. it fails when i point it to it's name "mydomain.com", and returns the error message "the system does not have a dns entry". how do i setup my server as a dns server a "fake dns server of course" ... although i only have the 2-machines running and connected together, so that my win95 pc's web browser finds my http server when i point it to it's name? thank you for your help ... -eddiev
