I just recently installed Suse 9.1 on an older pc. I have most everything working now but I have a problem when the browsers (Mozilla 1.7 & Konquarer) try to convert an address to the ip address. It acts like something has to time out and then it goes ok until it has to resolve another address. I set up the gateway and it does eventually get the ip address. Does anyone have any idea where to start looking? Bob Rawlinson
This usually indicates that the primary dns server was unreachable and timed out then the secondary was contacted. Do pings take a long time to resolve also? Can you ping/telnet to the primary name server for this box?

Yes ping works and it does not have any delay. However the gateway is a router box and i put that in as the gateway. Then the router has the ip of the 'real' dns server and gateway. Would that make any difference? Bob Rawlinson
You've had a couple other answers that indicate ipv6 might need to be disabled. Try that. Also, in your configuration does the router box provide dns for a lan? Are other boxes in the lan having problems resolving names or is it just this one? Jeff
