adding a host

Hello Freebsd Gurus!
I set up the test server with Windows 2003 to play. Now I'm trying to
add a hostname to our existing domain: newhostname.domain.com The
server runs FreeBSD 6.2 with pf firewall.
I added ip address and hostname to /etc/hosts Is there anything else
that needs to be done besides that? Pardon for the noob question.
