hi everyone. I am having some network/dns problems. my first problem is that when first booted up, the network isn't automatically configured and i have to ifdown and ifup it to make it work. my second problem is when I go to mozilla and type in a page like www.google.com, it take a VERY long time (like 5-10 minutes maybe). It keeps on saying "sending request..." and just sits there for a while. It seems like it will get there eventually, so I thought maybe it was a dns issue. Below is a copy of my interfaces, host.conf, and resolv.conf files...
---------------------interfaces ------------------------------- auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.22 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 gateway 192.168.1.1 ---------------------end of interfaces------------------------- ---------------------host.conf --------------------------------- order hosts,bind multi on ---------------------end host.conf ------------------------------ ----------------------resolv.conf ------------------------------------ search eggnog nameserver 204.127.198.4 -----------------------end resolv.conf--------------------------------- As I understand it, search represents the local domain.. i couldn't remember if that was what I named my local domain or not... is there a way to check this? Also, the nameserver is the same one that I use for my other linux machine, which works just fine. BTW, the machine that isn't working well is a laptop with a pcmcia network card, if that is relevant? I'm totally in the dark when it comes to linux networking configurations. Anyone see anything wrong of have any advise? Thanks a million, Jon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
