Aha, so here goes nameservers definitions on Debian Lenny? I remember on Debian Etch I used for this /etc/resolv.conf file. So the form is: nameservers 2.2.2.2 3.3.3.3 4.4.4.4 ?? >> Still I can't reach the Internet: >> ping www.google.com > > Can you ping outside addresses (for example the nameserver itself) by > IP?

I can't to paste here the exact ouput of 'ifconfig -a' command but have the following interfaces: lo, eth0 & eth1. I use another PC Box to mail here for help. So I find the cause of my problem, I think! eth1 is the usb-ethernet device and not eth0. eth0 is there because I used it when I installed on this PC Box the present Debian Lenny system, but through an Ethernet card. But now I want to configure this Box through USB port of a Cable modem, so that's why is there the eth1 interface. So, when I give today morning the MAC address to my ISP, I give the Ethernet card MAC address, instead of the USB-Ethernet aka eth1 MAC address to associate it with my new static, public IP address! I will correct this soon as possyble (here was a storm and my ISP is busy now ;). -- Regards, Paul Chany You can freely correct my English. http://csanyi-pal.info -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
