[tlug] Trying FreeBSD

[Gavin <gauin_36@example.com>]

Help,

I'm playing with FreeBSD 4.5 and I'm trying to update the ports packages, 
when I enter the command cvsup supfile, I get a reply saying "Cannot get IP 
address of my own host..is its host name correct? (yes it is) but if the 
problem is on my BSD box where do I need to go and check

My gateway box (Mandrake 8.0 ) MSEC is set to level 4, I entered the bsd box 
in host allow on my gateway,  re-entered the command cvsup supfile on BSD box 
and got the same reply again...what am I missing.. help

P.S. If I'm being to vage please let me know what info is needed. 
Sincerely,
Gavin
