Hello all. I am fresh off the boat into the world of NAS, I am learning Linux and FreeBSD gradually as a user.
I believe I am slightly better than intermediate in networking. I enjoy challenges, and get a sense of satisfaction from resolve.
Nonetheless, I have found a problem that I can't google a solution to, and countless hours of searching to too, including the forums support pages of Dell, FreeBSD, and so on. I am running FreeNAS 9.2.1.7 x86 (32bit)

My problem is as follows:
I have a Dell PowerEdge 2650 server. It runs dual 2.8 GHz Xeons, and has 6Gb PC2100/266 ECC DDR currently.
I have installed 1-37 Gb SCSI hard drive (for OS) and 4-147 Gb SCSI drives (for storage purposes.) I've watched the video on installing Plex, and have created a ZFS volume, media share, and jail plugin directory..
Everything seems to be operating fine, except for networking. I have tried manual configuration (IPv4) and manual default route (My router's v4 address, right?) I have also tried DHCP.
I have swapped from one NIC port to the other, and configured it as well (manual and DHCP), both from the raw console, and via the web GUI.
My other machines can access the directory via the local (10.0.0.*) network. All machines are on the same tier/subnet mask/ etc.
The NAS server cannot access the repository to install plex, or other plugins. I can't even resolve or ping google, Sometimes, it WILL actually resolve, but no further activity after that. I have been able to send test emails through a gmail account that I created just for this machine.

Another symptom is is the raw console screen will scroll an error about not being able to reach
0, 1, or 2.freebsd.pool.ntp.org.

The output of my ifconfig file is:
Code:
 
ifconfig
bge0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=8009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,LINKSTAT

And my netstat -rh is as follows:

Can anyone see anything in here that I might be too novice to catch? Or maybe something that I might have over looked?
Thanks for any help you can offer. I will be glad to attempt to answer any questions I can.

Update:
To anyone who may be watching,
I tried traceroute on a whim and found that it will count hops all the way to what I presume is Google's DNS. [74.125.137.100]
Is it possible that the firewall in this install somehow got misconfigged?
I am really stumped. I sure would like to get this thing gated properly so that I can access the repo.

Sounds like you didn't set up your DNS server. Post the output of cat /etc/resolv.conf

Also, Google's DNS servers are actually 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

After learning that my machine is only capable of 32 bit architechture, I decided to pull the plug on this. Is there a classified section?

No classified section. :(

Honestly, you made a good choice since your hardware is limited to 32-bit. Does it suck? Of course. But it's better to walk away before things go bad. ;)

Yes, I must agree. I now have in my posession the two newest additions to my server rack, a Dell 2850 and 2950.
So, oddly enough I have an archaic 2650, a 2850 and 2950. Would it be considered an act od OCD to astack them according to model number?

OK, I admit. I did.
Thanks for the attempt. I will keep you guys posted, if you have such a preferred venue for such.
Best regards,
