Hello, I have a very strange problem: suddenly I cannot reach the web using domain names from my laptop - and only from my laptop. I can reach any site using the IP-Number, but not with domain names. If I want to log into to the router-PC using ssh with the name, I get the message Temporary failure in name resolution. I can login with the IP-Number... What I don't understand, is that I can use ssh and the web normally on the other computers via the same router-PC - it just doen't work anymore from my laptop. So the name server on the router fully works (I also tried there using the host command and w3m). I havn't changed anything on the laptop. I just shutted it down (while anything worked normally), then started it again later and since then I have this problem. I tried to find any useful info in the logs, but I cannot see anything (which doesn't mean there is no info - I probably just search the wrong files for the wrong words...). Where can I look what happend and how can I find out where the problems are? Thanks for your hints. Daniel some details: Router: PC running SuSE 8.1 with named and firewall (nothing changed there since years, except root.hint from time to time) Laptop: openSuse 10.3, connected per cable via switch to the router above other PC's: openSuse 10.2, working normally Win98, working normally, too all 3 PCs are connected to the router via the same switch. -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Switzerland professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com erotic art photos: http://www.bauer-nudes.com/en/linux.html Madagascar special: http://www.fotograf-basel.ch/madagascar/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
