According to the readout of "ssh -vvv gateway" the connection is made immediately. Does that not indicate that it knew where to go? The contents of "/etc/resolv.conf" on all of my systems is the same: [frankie] ~> cat /etc/resolv.conf search hawaii.rr.com nameserver 24.25.227.33 nameserver 24.25.227.66 nameserver 24.25.227.64 I even commented out the other 2 and tried each nameserver one at a time and it was able to resolve www.freebsd.org Am I looking in the wrong place?
