Hello: I am still having resolver problems with my 6.2 system. It has shown up with trying to install ports from the ftp site. I discovered that there is no resolv.conf file, so I created one. The funny thing is if I ping one of my web sites with www.<domainName>.com ping can't resolve the address. but if I do <actualHostName>.<domainName>.com it works. Just for control test purposes I tried from a Mac OSX machine and was able to ping www.<domainName>.com. I even have my own DNS servers listed as servers to contact in resolv.conf To abbreviate this message, I am trying to get ports set up and working. This time I tried portsnap fetch and the site indicated as the source and mirrors could not be found. Any suggestions, help, advice is appreciated. I am going more to the existing material, but it obviously cannot anticipate this sort of problem literally. Thanks In Advance: Jeff K
