The problem solving process for connection issues is generally something like the following: 1. Find the router. $ ip route list 192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.6 default via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0 2. Talk to the router $ ping -c1 192.168.0.1 PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1): 48 data bytes 56 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=1.856 ms --- 192.168.0.1 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 1.856/1.856/1.856/0.000 ms 3. Check /etc/resolv.conf $ cat /etc/resolv.conf search linuxfromscratch.org nameserver 24.93.41.128 4. Check that the nameserver is working $ ping -c1 24.93.41.128 PING 24.93.41.128 (24.93.41.128): 48 data bytes 56 bytes from 24.93.41.128: icmp_seq=0 ttl=49 time=21.044 ms --- 24.93.41.128 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 21.044/21.044/21.044/0.000 ms At this point, assuming the ip number in resolv.conf is a valid nameserver, wget should work. Any problems from there are probably the remote host being down. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
