There are a couple of problems here. Probably the biggest is that
you do not have any name server in /etc/resolv.conf. There are a
couple of ways to fix this. You can ether set the computer up to use
dhcp to get its information, or you can edit /etc/resolv.conf.

Try editing /etc/resov.conf - put in:

nameserver 192.168.2.1


If that does not work, let us know and we can tell you how to set up
the interface to use DHCP instead. (This is probably how Windows is
set up...)

Thanks. I tried editing resolv.conf per your suggestion but I'm getting the same error message. Can you let me know what I need to do to get dhcp set up?

Grazie.
