Hi Matthew, Thank you so much for your quick reply. How Can I override using openresolv/resolvconf or configuring it for static IP on a server ? Currently my servers are configured with DHCP by the webhost company. I prefer to have them configured with static IP but right now I'm stuck on the openresolv problem.
Do you know where can I find a openresolv howto for FreeBSD-9 please.
