Thanks for the reply Mike. In order, here's what I've found: 1. "What does cat /etc/resolv.conf show?"
*# Generated by Connection Manager* *nameserver 127.0.0.1* 2. "Can you ping www.google.com ?" I opened a Chromium browser on the BBB (using a monitor connected by HDMI, and a Logitech USB wireless mouse, and keyboard with USB) and got a *"This webpage is not available because the server at goole.com <http://goole.com> can't be found, because the DNS lookup failed."* 3. "Are the addresses in ntp.conf IP's or hostnames?" When I try to execute *cat /etc/ntp.conf* here are my results: *root@beaglebone:~# cat /etc/ntp.conf* *cat: /etc/ntp.conf: No such file or directory* Additionally, I attempted to run a dig command per the advice I received on another forum and here is the result: *root@beaglebone:~# dig feeds.angstrom-distribution.org <http://feeds.angstrom-distribution.org>* *-sh: dig: command not found* Thanks for any ideas or advice you have.
