I had previously posted about this problem I am facing in Fedora Core 6. I can resolve all URLs from the command line, and Firefox works with the IP addresses, but not with the URLs themselves. Yum doesn't work either, probably for the same reason. However, Konqueror just works fine! No problemo.
I am using Kubuntu 6.10. And it does not work in Firefox or Konqueror. The IP leads me to a page that just says "Welcome to HBCSE!".
I also tried my setup with a Knoppix Live DVD, and it worked like a charm. Firefox, Konqueror everything. So could it be that FC6 has some issues in dealing with a modem/router setup and IP address assigned via DHCP? Some of the Fedora brand upholders could help.
Well, I am using a vpn here at my university, so I don't think that's the problem. Kaustubh
