I'm new to FreeBSD.  Am trying to set up 6.2.  Don't understand why Network 
Configuration requires a domain name.  I've never needed one when setting up 
Windows XP networking--only had to set it to automatically acquire IP address.  
For FreeBSD 6.2, I left the "Domain" field blank in the "Network Configuration" 
screen, and every time at startup, I would get the message that it's "unable to 
qualify my own domain name".  Must I make one up?  Why is this?

Thanks.
