Ask your ISP to authenticate your nameserver address(es) with the line enable dns Does this depend on the ISP as to whether it'll work or not? It works fine for one ISP, but not for the other (I'm trying out a free one). This is a bit of a nuisance. Is there anything I can do to "fix" it? (there's no point talking to the ISP, they only "support" Windows, and they only have a premium-rate phone number for support) -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford. OBSOLETE: Any computer you own. ________________________________________________________________ FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org My Webpage http://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/~mark/ mailto:mark@ukug.uk.freebsd.org http://www.radan.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
