I'm new to FreeBSD. Am trying to set up 6.2. Don't understand why Network Configuration requires a domain name. I've never needed one when setting up Windows XP networking--only had to set it to automatically acquire IP address. For FreeBSD 6.2, I left the "Domain" field blank in the "Network Configuration" screen, and every time at startup, I would get the message that it's "unable to qualify my own domain name". Must I make one up? Why is this?
Thanks.
