The fact that you can browse the Internet with IP addresses but not with names does indeed suggest a DNS problem. Please post the actual server IPs rather than masking them. > checked the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file > It does not contain the line 'PEERDNS=no' > > Do I have to add the above line ? No. If at all you need to add the line, it should be PEERDNS=yes. > ... the 'make modules' did not complete because it filled all the > available space on my partition.

Check df and df -i, and look for 100% utilization. > eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:48:A4:C2:84 > inet addr:202.80.07.192 Bcast:255.255.255.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 > inet6 addr: fe80::280:48ff:fe34:c284/64 Scope:Link <--- > Another thing, I just tried the command 'lsmod' to check which modules > are loaded.

As you can see above, your eth0 also has an IPv6 address. That is where the ipv6 module is being used. Try putting NETWORKING_IPV6=no in your ifcfg-eth0 file. > Any help is most welcome. Some additional info is needed. Send the output of: 1. traceroute -n 64.233.161.104 2. dig www.google.com 3. cat /etc/resolv.conf (without masking) 4. dig @4.2.2.1 www.google.com Binand ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
