I notice that all of these resolv.conf files are listing 127.0.0.1 first. Are you running a caching-only name server locally? If not, you need to remove that line. (If you ARE running a local name server, you might try removing that line anyway to make sure.) Also, do you have a firewall runing? Normally, the initscripts will automatically 'punch holes' in the firewall for your DNS servers, but something could be wrong with that. P.S. Yes, I saw a bunch of messages recently from some idiot demonstrating his ability to copy and paste the f-word. --Jeremy On Mon, 2003-06-23 at 12:14, rebel indian wrote: > hi Matthew and others > Nothing is working.
