That does sound a little bit odd, I think whoever originally wrote it probably entered the instructions that worked for them and that's what we published. Here are the FreeBSD 6.3 instructions (slightly closer to 7):
http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/browser/trunk/inst/docs/INSTALL_FreeBSD63.txt
I know there are several other FreeBSD 7 users, I've CC'd a few of them in case they have any wisdom to share.

Hi,

I'm about to embark on the journey of installing this on FreeBSD 7. The first step according to the doc http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/browser/branches/zenoss-2.2.x/inst/docs/INSTALL_FreeBSD62.txt is to "configure dhcp networking" via sysinstall...

5 1.  Login as root, run sysinstall, configure dhcp networking
6
7 # sysinstall

I don't see this requirement for any other OS. Why does this need to be done on FreeBSD? Additionally, the instructions are not clear about what exactly should be configuered here... Do I need to set up a DHCP server? Do I need to configure the interface of the server to be a DHCP client?

Can someone provide me with some insight into this requirement please?

Thanks,
Oliver
