If you use a more descriptive subject for your email, you'll get better answers.

The handbook has everything you need. If you get hung up on a specific step, please feel free to ask on this list. Unfortunately, it's impractical to present an entire walkthrough on the mailing list. Note that the FreeBSD handbook has many translations. Check to see if there is one in your native language: http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/translations.html There are also non-english mailing lists. One in your native language may make things easier for you, if it exists: http://www.freebsd.org/community/mailinglists.html > I already get in the directory /usr/ports/gnome2 & /usr/ports/www and make > install and its start downloading but nothing happened after that > installation done ??? You've got it installed, so that step is complete. Now you need to configure it. This section of the handbook should be helpful: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11-wm.html > I also need to now how to configure the hostname and ip addresses like local > ip and fixed ip to trait the local lan and I real lan in the same way.. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/config-network-setup.html -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com
