Hi, I now remember that I have observed a similar problem at my parents' place. The thing is that even though the bfocus 312+ claims to provide proxy DNS service, it has some major bugs in their implementation.
I suggest that you set your Linux boxes to use your ISP's DNS servers directly and not the bfocus' DNS. If you prefer to still use DHCP provided by your bfocus, then you should override the DNS provided by the DHCP server according to the concept in the following article: http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_45_12510.shtm Or you can drop the DHCP at all... - Noam On Sat, Oct 4, 2008 at 2:34 PM, Rafi Gordon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I tried to change the setting exactly according to the thread if > frehs.co.il that you > sent.
