I had a wired network with a FreeBSD gateway/firewall. The gateway
died and I converted to a mixed network with a Belkin N1 wireless
router.
I have 2 windows machines and 3 FreeBSD 6.2-stable machines.
fix etc/rc.conf and reboot.
dhclient is running. I have leases and can access the web.
All machines can ping the outside world by name and any other machine
by IP.
The windows machines can ping any other maching by name.
The FreeBSD machines can not ping any local machine by name.
What accesses the router to get DHCP info?
# cat /etc/hosts | sed '/^#/d'
::1 localhost localhost.my.domain
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain
You need to add the hostname dv6000 entry to hosts, or create your own zone
files and run bind. As these are private IP's you need either to update
hosts or run DNS. You may find it easier to give servers static private
IP's that way you are assured your hosts entries or DNS entries are correct.
# hostname
dv6000
# ping dv6000
ping: cannot resolve dv6000: Unknown host
I am missing something. What?

I cannot get DNS for machines inside the router
