These machines are connected through a router to a cable modem where they share the internet. My router assigns by dhcp ip numbers in the range of 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.l00. The router does NAT for my other computers. I do not have an official registered domain. My windows machines boot up and operate on the internet without complication. Is there any way that I can get my FreeBSD machine to due the same? My FreeBSD machine will get a valid ip assignment. It is not be able to get external DNS translations and Sendmail chokes.
