This may work the same for FreeBSD as it does in Linux Red Hat. Edit your /etc/hosts file and make it look like this. ( say your IP is 4.60.53.102 )
( hosts file ) 4.60.53.102 hostname.domain.com hostname ( the hostname would be the name 127.0.0.1 localhost you gave your computer ) mine looks like this: 192.168.1.101 hlserver.verizon.net hlserver ( im setting behind a router with Nat ) 127.0.0.1 localhost Linux installs get the locahost and the Ip reversed alot and this will give you headaches. Hope this helps.
