I tried an upgrade from potato 2.2r3 to woody and all seemed to go well except that after connecting to my ISP with ppp via phone dialup I can't resolve any names. This use to work fine under potato. I can ping the numerical addresses fine, but for example a ping to debian.org fails. I did a route -n with the following result:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0 255... UH 1 0 0 tap0 206.53.160.232 0... 255... UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.0.0 0... 255...0 U 0 0 0 tap0 0.0.0.0 0... 0... U 1 0 0 tap0 where the ... means more of same. I suspect it is trying to resolve the names locally whereas I want it to look at the dynamically provided nameserver of the ISP. I'm also not sure what the tap0 interface is. To send this message I rebooted to a working copy of potato on another partition. I'm still running 2.2.19 kernel. I have an ethernet card but haven't (and don't need to at the moment) configured it or even loaded the driver. Can ayone help me sort out the DNS problem?
