Hmmm...
Maybe the first time the problem showed up the laptop was disconnected from the
network,
but I'm positive it showed more than once when the laptop was connected to my
company's network.
DNS addresses are configured via DHCP and I was able to connect to both company
network and
the internet once the X environment server was up, so I think DNS was not the
problem.
I'll double-check next time I'll fire the laptop up.
Thank you anyway,
bye,
Manuel
