Hello!

I've been an occasional Linux user, and now I've decided to really start
learning Linux by installing Gentoo on my Apple iMac. I contemplated
writing to either gentoo-ppc-user or gentoo-osx but I'm not sure my
problem is platform specific so I wrote to this list instead.

The problem is I can ping all addresses on the same network (subnet
255.255.240.0) but I can't reach any hosts outside.

My hardware is Apple iMac 15" G4 800MHz TFT w/ SuperDrive. Should I post
to another list?

I found one discussion that might be related (?):

Any suggestion would be really appreciated.

do you have a valid nameserver entry in /etc/resolv.conf ?
