WOW thanks for taking me under your "wing". I'm actually online, here, courtsey of, ta da, DEBIAN! I looked in /etc/ after doing touch /etc/resolv.conf and the file had a "?" on it I though that was a bad sign however once I connected it changed (no "?" on the file now) I also have 22, yes twenty-two files, in /etc, named resolv.conf.ppp.temp with 4 digit numbers after the "temp". Should I delete these? Thank You very Much! JY
