Make sure your /etc/resolv.conf file has the appropriate dns servers for your ISP. Should looke something like below.. domain yourdomain.com search yourdnsdomain.com nameserver 1.2.3.4 nameserver 5.6.7.8 Or are you setting up a dns server? If so, then you'll need a whole new set of instructions for that. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Best little town on Earth!"
