This is something that would be useful in the INSTALL.txt documentation. I
just helped a friend install MICO on a Fedora Core 5 machine. I knew he had
to edit his hosts file, but it wasn't obvious to him.
Thanks for all the work put into MICO. Since I haven't seen it listed, I'll
let you know I have MICO working with Linux 2.6 on x86_64 machines.

Hi,
don't focus your attention solely on DNS configuration. In fact I would
rather recommend you to inspect your /etc/hosts file which Rudolf already
suggested. The whole issue is that your machine of some name needs to be
able to also get it's own IP address and to the machine IP you need to be
able to get the machine name. For both these tasks /etc/hosts is perfectly
enough, you just need to setup or even install your machine correctly.
BTW: What you get if you execute this command-line:
ping `hostname`
is ping able to ping your host IP address?
Cheers,
Karel

This doesn't look good.
MICO requires a correct network installation.
man rc.conf
man hosts
man named
man sysinstall
...
All you need is a standard FreeBSD installation with networking
configured. And then the standard MICO works out of the box.
Cheers,
Rudi
