I am having network problems. I last booted into FreeBSD last weekend, and 
everything was fine. Now today the networking is not working. I do not recall 
any changes that I might have made since then.

In a nutshell, I cannot resolve urls. I can ping an absolute address and the 
localhost, but I cannot ping any urls. I can ping the nameserver address. I 
am using FreeBSD as a client machine with a DSL connection.  I have no 
problems with networking under Slackware.

(all addresses changed for my privacy)

Here is my "hosts"
127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost
xxx.yyy.zzz.8            nomad.home nomad
xxx.yyy.zzz.8            nomad.home.

Here is my "host.conf":
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/host.conf,v 1.6 1999/08/27 23:23:41 peter Exp $
hosts
bind

Here is my "resolv.conf":
domain home
nameserver mmm.nnn.ooo.ppp

Here is my "rc.conf":
# -- sysinstall generated deltas -- #
ifconfig_dc0="inet xxx.yyy.zzz.8  netmask 255.255.255.0"
kern_securelevel_enable="NO"
linux_enable="YES"

moused_enable="YES"
router_enable="NO"
defaultrouter="xxx.yyy.zzz.1"
sshd_enable="YES"
amd_enable="NO"
inetd_enable="YES"
hostname="nomad.home"

output of uname -a:

output of netstat -i:

output of netstat -r:

Internet:

(nothing else...)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
