> Well, I have tried http://www.slashdot.org and it is > working. yes, i didn't mean to imply it wasn't. i meant to say that the name doesn't resolve for me. my laptop isn't finding the dns servers for some reason. it use to magically know who the dns servers were (maybe if i understood how this happened i could find the problem) and for some reason it suddenly stopped knowing. so i can enter slashdot's ip address and get there fine, but if i enter the url, i can't. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
