This brings to mind a question, I've been wanting to ask:
How does one get the system to read the rc.conf changes without rebooting the system?

Hi,
I'm using FreeBsd 5.3 and I'm switching to a static ip, but am not sure of all the syntax.
If not, here's what I had in my rc.conf. hostname="john" ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP"
now I'm hoping to have a
hostname of bagus.org gateway of 204.251.1.185 ip address of 204.251.1.186 netmask of 255.255.255.248
I'm guessing I need to change my resolve.conf, too. what does the 'search' line in there do?
Any other considerations?
Thanks,
Bagus
p.s. I can't for the life of me find a simple how-to-get-your-freebsd-box-online guide. The handbook seems to only have "11.3 Core Configuration" which has a little bit about cluster configurations. What's up with that? I just want to get one box online!
I use the following on my rc.conf:
ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.200.8 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="192.168.200.254" hostname="uirapuru.pinguim"
