I guess you mean FreeBSD 4.4 (September 2001)? This release has nothing 
to do with 4.4BSD-Lite2 (June 1995). Use "uname -r" to find out your 
exact version. I suggest to start with a more recent release, e.g. 
FreeBSD 5.4 (May 2005). You'll find some information about the relation 
to 4.4BSD-Lite2 in this text:

The handbook (freebsd.org/handbook) is a good reference to start with 
FreeBSD.
