you mean above? Making an assumption about what people are doing can
lead you down the wrong road. I don't need to tell you how many people
would claim to be pinging ip addresses when they're not. :-P
Yep I meant that above line. Ip address means an "ip address" after
all not hostname. And yes may be n00bs don't make a difference
between the two. I'm no expert at all but not a n00b atleast.

as someone else said, if you've got 'zeroconf' (i think, not
resolvconf) that could be part of the problem.
I don't have either.
dhcp is installed and I installed pump too since the dhcp client I saw
at times unable to get any ip at boot. At other times it got without
any error message.
