    Can you access this one?: http://216.136.204.117/
    It's www.freebsd.org IP so if you can access by IP number it
    is likely that your resolver isn't configured.

    Means nothing to you perhaps but its output would help other
    list subscribers to help you.

    You should send your question to questions@freebsd.org where
    all technical questions should go, and you should include as
    much information as you can eg. the output of 'ifconfig -a',
    'cat /etc/resolv.conf', 'netstat -rn' and 'uname -a'.
