I am in FreeBSD now and checked "man netstat" for both FreeBSD and NetBSD. I am in FreeBSD now but can see the /etc/resolv.conf files match : # Generated by resolvconf nameserver 209.18.47.61 nameserver 209.18.47.62 I run netstat -nrf inet on FreeBSD, and it shows only local interfaces, so don't expect anything better in NetBSD: Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire default 192.168.0.1 UGS re0 127.0.0.1 link#2 UH lo0 192.168.0.0/24 link#1 U re0 192.168.0.5 link#1 UHS lo0 Now if I knew what options/parameters to tweak, I could try again in NetBSD. For when to try to rebuild NetBSD, I look to http://releng.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/builds.cgi and shy away when I see something like Currently building tag: HEAD started at Mon Jun 12 22:50:42 UTC 2017 0 passed 49 failed so far Tom
