I am using my FreeBSD 4.8 in a local network, I do not have any routable IPs assigned to the box, so what am I supposed to use as a hostname for that FreeBSD box?
I have an internet connection (DSL modem with NAT), and I am using the sendmail on the box, and the problem I have, is that during the boot time I need to wait 2 minutes for the DNS-timeout.
I wanted to ask, how the hostname is meant to be set in my case.
Cheers, Constantine.
