Try ping 66.102.11.104 If this also fails, don't read on - wait for help from someone more experienced :-) If this works, then the problem is that you don't have DNS server specified. You should put something like this into /etc/resolv.conf: domain mydomain.net nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx xx.xx.xx.xx should be replaced with your ISP's DNS server. If you don't have your own domain name, you can use just your ISP's domain name here. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * I've got a life but it won't run on my operating system.
