I have my first win box on a FBSD LAN. From the win box I can
Ping the FBSD box and a IP address on the internet. But I can
not get Internet Explorer to pull up a internet web page, says
not found. The win box network tcp/ip properties DNS configuration
tab I have Enable DNS on and the host field filled with the FBSD host
name and domain field with FBSD domain name as displayed with the FBSD
hostname command. Any ideas about what knobs I need to turn on to
make this work?

Second question: In the IP address tab I could not get win box to
Obtain an IP address automatically. Had to specify the IP address.
Is this normal? Is there a way to tell the Nic card to issue a IP
Address to the win box?

Thanks
