Once installed DNS lookups through the same server work fine. The success of the URL with an IP address would tend to indicate that the interface configuration was set up properly. (The DNS server is the gateway, and I carefully verified that the address matched in both fields.) It might be related to subnetting - I use a 27/5 split with hellspark on the third (205.179.79.64) subnet. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
