Hi Klaus, Sorry for not responding sooner, but I'm not subscribed to the list, so it took me a while to find your messeage.
In response to your questions: > what does 'route -an' give you? I first ran /sbin/dhclient, and I get all the normal looking stuff. Then running 'route -n' gives: ansum:~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface ansum:~# So, there's nothing there. > what does 'cat /etc/resolv.conf' give you? ansum:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf search cp.telus.net nameserver 66.203.195.237 Looks normal... > you are getting an ip, obviously, so maybe try pinging your dhcp server? ansum:~# ping 66.203.194.1 PING 66.203.194.1 (66.203.194.1): 56 data bytes ping: send to: Network is unreachable ping: wrote 66.203.194.1 64 chars, ret=-1 ping: send to: Network is unreachable . . . So, even though dhcp seems to be working, the rest of the computer is etting the message. Does this narrow the problem down at all?
