Thanks for helping, Purple and C. Hamel! Consider that I am *not* using a DNS server, but a dial-up connection. I have never needed to set DNS to access internet whether on Windows or Linux. Some more ideas?
You need a DNS regardless of the method you use to connect to the internet. You are almost certainly getting your IP address set automatically via dhcp from your ISP. dhcp *can* also set up your DNS IP address(es) automatically but this depends on how things are configured. You need to either configure your system to get DNS IP addresses via dhcp or define them yourself. -- Robert C. Paulsen, Jr. robert@paulsenonline.net
