Still a little confused.
how do i set my connection to use DHCP?? when i enter network configuration under sysinstall it asks if i want to try usin DHCP to configure the connection. i select yes, and when i do it fill in some of the fields for me. does this mean it has set my connection to use DHCP.
Does the computer name have to be the name i specified when i installed windows? (im running a dual boot laptop)
Sorry if that sounds stupid? this is my fisrst time installin and configuring a linux system (although i know technically freeBSD is not Linux)
