Go to <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.whatismyip.com";>http://www.whatismyip.com</a> and then open a terminal and type:
 host &lt;your-ip&gt; to see what reverse DNS entry (if any) you have.

&gt; Silly question, but how can I find my DNS domain?  I'm doing an install
&gt; via FTP and getting the following error:
&gt; 
&gt; ftp: No address associated with hostname
&gt; ftp: Can't connect or login to host 'ftp.NetBSD.org'
&gt; 
&gt; I assume this is because when the install asks for my DNS domain, I'm
&gt; entering the wrong info.  How can I find this?  I connect via DHCP using
&gt; Alltel DSL.  I thought that my DNS nameservers were assigned
&gt; automatically.  The example shows a name like 'example.com' and not an
&gt; IP address, but I assume either would work.

&gt; Thanks.
