I'm running SUSE 8.2
My home network is DSL feeding into router. Dynamic ip addresss assignments.
Installed a new NIC in one of my computers. Suse recognizes it, and it can communicate with the router and is assigned an ip address. But it can't get past the router to the internet. When I ping an internet name (e.g, yahoo.com) the error is "unknown host." When I ping an address (e.g. 65.115.115.115) the error is "network unreachable."
I can ping the router and the entire home LAN.
Where should I be looking? FWIW, my resolv.conf file doesn't look right. It should be a temporary file generated by dhcpd, but it looks like a regular resolv.conf file.
Thanks as always.

hmmm...this sounds like a DNS problem. So, your suse machine now has 2 NICS? Or did you replace the one that was in there, so you still have 1 NIC? I'd just redo the config. for the single NIC. Run yast and make sure you remove any NIC settings and add your single NIC - at least if you do have 1 NIC, the same would apply with 2, but don't touch your network settings for the other NIC. Also, just to be sure - are u running any firewall on your suse box? You have a router so that should be taking care of NAT or firewall...but just want to be sure.
