Hi,

I am able to get Lynx and Telnet to connect to an (non local) IP address
such as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,
but when I enter in a URL such as http://www.foo.com I get the error
"can't resolve host".

I read the pppHOWTO (but I'm not sure if a; I understand it all, and b;
if it even applies since wvdial did all the work)

I looked for resolv.conf and don't seem to have one,  let alone know
where it should reside,
and read the docs that come with Lynx to no avail.

Any assistance in this perplexing situation would be greatly appreciated
by this a comer to the world of Debian/Linux.

Thanks in advance,

Jim
