I'm a newcomer to FreeBSD.  I am running the 12th of April snapshot.

I must say I have been very impressed with the ease of setup of FreeBSD.
After a couple of weeks of evenings, I have a tuned kernel, TCP/IP over 
ethernet to my notebook PC and SLIP and PPP running to my dialup account.

I have just one tiny problem.  I downloaded Netscape and have been using it
successfully to many Net sites, except one.  For some reason I can't get to
'www.freebsd.org'.  Now I know that this is really a small thing, but it's
hard to describe just how annoying it is.

Has anyone else experienced this?  Can anyone get to the freebsd Web pages
using the current Netscape (version 1.1N)?

Thanks in advance,

John.
