 Hello,
 
 By ignorance, I named the host: machine0.example.com (just following what
 I saw.)

Even though this has nothing to do with the error message you
got, the name example.com is intended for _examples_ and not
for actual use. It will usually be found in documentation and
has the meaning of change this to what applies in _your_ case
if you follow this example.

Typical suggestions could be machine0.local or fbsd9.localdomain.
If _may_ be possible that your ISP requires you do enter a
specific host and domain name, or your setting requires this.
There might be rules you have to follow. Besides, _you_ will
decide about the name.

You can change this information easily in /etc/rc.conf, it's
the following setting:

hostname=hostname.domainname

You could also provide corresponding entries in /etc/hosts.



 Every time I reboot, I get: machine0# Nov26 04:37:03 machine0
 ntpd_initrest[2008]:host name not found: 0.freebsd.pool.org

The error message indicates that the name of the time server
(for NTP), called 0.freebsd.pool.org, cannot be resolved to an
IP. You should check your Internet connection and the setting
for the resolver in /etc/resolv.conf. Can you access other
machines on the Internet?

This is what you should be able to do:

% host 0.freebsd.pool.org
0.freebsd.pool.org has address 64.99.80.30



 I get this error, unless I enter my login info; and after I had entered my
 login info, if I don't do anything else right away, this error message
 comes back.

That's normal as NTP tries to make a connection to the specified
server as long as it's running. You'll find the NTP related settings
(ntpdate, ntpd) in /etc/rc.conf, plus examples and explanations
in /etc/defaults/rc.conf.



 And the time is wrong too.

Of course the time is wrong: It could not be adjusted because the
required Internet connection to obtain the current time could not
be made.

You can manually set the time using the date command.
See man date for details.



 Also, I received 4 installer discs: 2 installers and 2 important packages
 (2 for amd64 and 2 for i386), how do I read the appropriate Important
 Packages disc in?

According to what architecture you're using (i386 _or_ amd64),
you would probably use bsdinstall to deal with those discs
(at least the older installer, sysinstall, could be used
to install packages from the CDs or DVDs, so I assume this
functionality would also be part of bsdinstall).

The discs contain precompiled binary packages that you _can_
install (there is basically no need that forces you to install
all of them!) by using the system's package management command,
pkg_add (resp. pkg add). Simply mount the disc and install what
you need. Those discs are typically provided for offline use
when you cannot download software from the Internet.

I assume you're using FreeBSD 9 already. In this case, refering
to The FreeBSD Handbook about the steps of installation might
be a good idea:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/bsdinstall.html

I've got no deeper experience with bsdinstall so far, that's
why I can't be more specific, sorry.

This is wrong -- example.com is a special purpose domain-name reserved
for documentation.  You need to choose yourself a proper domain name or
use whatever your ISP provides.  However, it has no bearing on the other
problem you cite:

 Every time I reboot, I get: machine0# Nov26 04:37:03 machine0
 ntpd_initrest[2008]:host name not found: 0.freebsd.pool.org
 I get this error, unless I enter my login info; and after I had entered my

What's happening here is that ntpd is trying to lookup
0.freebsd.pool.org in the DNS, and failing.  This implies that DNS is
not working at all for any of the applications on your system: ntpd is
just the most vocal about complaining (and it will keep retrying and
complaining for a long time).

Examine the contents of /etc/resolv.conf and check that you can lookup
names in the DNS using host(1) or dig(1).  Fix that if it doesn't work
and try again.  If it does work, then maybe there's a problem with
routing or your resolv.conf being dynamically generated during the boot
sequence: such things can be fixed, but we'd need to know a lot more
about the particulars of your systems in order to provide correct advice.

I wondered about that to; however, until today, I have never even opened that

ssh is usually started as a daemon via /etc/rc.d/sshd, so it shouldn't

First, /nonexistant should probably not exist. It is the home
directory of the nobody user (uid 65534). I would just kill it `rm
-rf /nonexistant`

If it *does* exist that may not be a problem, as long as the nobody
user does not have a valid shell, but /nonexistant is used by many
system accounts so just setting the ACLs on it to `chmod -R

I found the problem. The path to the use did not start with a '/'. I

I searched around and figured that out. Now I have a few other questions.

1) How did it suddenly get in my /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory anyway?

2) If it is not specifically enabled or disabled in the rc.conf file,
why is it complaining? Other files in ./rc.d do not complain if there is
no entry in the rc.conf file. They just do not start. At least that is
what I believe happens.

3) Would this be considered a bug of some type?

Please wrap your lines around 72 chars.  See
http://www.lemis.com/questions.html

What version of Apache are you running?  What modules does it have installed.
Answering those questions will narrow down the problem and you can start
researching it in more detail.  Also, looking through your http access
and error logs to correlate times will help tell you what's causing the
problem.

I've always beat this error by disabling 'PnP OS Installed' or it's 
equivalent in my BIOS. Check your BIOS, disable the 'PnP OS' support and 
you should be all set.

Good luck.

 #1 This is FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE
 #2 I've been looking at the motherboard's manual, and the BIOS setup, 
 and there does not appear to be a way to turn off PNP OS.  This is a 
 Tyan Thunder K7X.

I presume that this is the MoBo:
http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk7x.html

I use Tyan dual boards, but only for Intel. I would have thought that
Tyan would keep the format of their documentation straight regardless of
AMD / Intel arch.

Please have another look through the manual, just in case we're missing
something in our haste:-)

I noted this at the Tyan site:
Expansion Slots
  One AGP Pro slot; also supports 4x AGP
  One 64-bit 66MHz (3.3-volt) PCI  slot
  One 64-bit 66MHz (5-volt) PCI slot
  Three 32-bit 33MHz (5-Volt) PCI slots
  Total of six usable slots

Now I see no mention of an integrated sound card, so I presume that
you've inserted a PCI card. 
I neglected to ask, but exactly what model sound card is it?
Which slot is the card installed to?

Check the card docs to see if it matches any of the requirements of the
available slots as described here.

Regards,

Stacey
