Hostname resolution. You need to specify the DNS server you are using in
/etc/resolv.conf. Try pinging a known IP address outside of your network
from the Mandrake box (ie run nslookup on the Debian box for www.cnn.com).
If that ping goes through, it is most certainly what it sounds like from
the above, DNS resolution.
The format for the /etc/resolv.conf (in case its different, I haven't
gotten my hands on a box to put Debian on) is:
nameserver 10.0.0.2
nameserver 10.0.0.3
and on and on until you run out of nameservers you want to check.
Hope that helps
