Hi,
The following problem is occuring on my machine. ping does not work,
but nslookup does. I get IP (and DNS server IPs for resolve.conf) from
my ISP's DHCP server.

Any solutions please?


When I get these sort of problems my first (and normally correct) suspect is nscd. Try 'nscd -i hosts' and then retry the request.

nslookup goes direct to the DNS server, bypassing the name resolver.
