Excuse me if this is sounds very lame; I'm sorely lacking in networking knowledge. I've the pleasure (misfortune?) of having an ADSL connection and I've noticed that when the ISP's DNS is down, sendmail doesn't seem to startup. (same goes for fetchmail, but that might be because I have it trying to access the mailbox using a domain name) This last time it happened I couldn't even start up X. Is there a simple answer to this, based on what I've given so far? david To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
