Hi,
I have upgraded my Linux from Red Hat 7.3 (Valhalla) to Red hat 9 (shrike). I am on the LAN but I am not able to connect to the Internet. I am on a laptop and use DHCP.
I have checked I have enabled DHCPservice.
When I run Netscape its says..unable to connect to ..host. etc etc
and when I go on a shell and type
ping www.yahoo.com <http://www.yahoo.com/>
it says no host yahoo.com found.
I switched back to windows its a Linux problem or network problem. Internet is working on windows.
Please help me how can I connect to the Internet on this Red Hat 9. earlier on 7.3 I was using Internet very smoothly.
Thanks in Advance
Rebel

Have you verified that eth0 is up by running "ifconfig eth0"?
Have you checked "netstat -r" to see that the routing table is correct?
Have you looked at /etc/resolv.conf to verify that it has been updated properly from DHCP?
Have you tested DNS by running "nslookup"?
