Unfortunately, when you don't have static ip, and your dns are hosted on DHCP ip addresses, then all this careful configuration is of no use :( I think they have allotted DHCP ips on long lease to you - but even these expire. Also, if it's a brand new set up, wait a little (say 4 days) for the DNS to propogate. It takes that much time at least. > lin A 203.197.150.51 > localhost A 127.0.0.1 > serv A 203.197.150.52 DHCP addresses :) And yes, you have done right with rDNS, but still - when your ip doesn't remain static, all your work is no use. Look at the DNS servers used by vsnl. Also use the "dig" command to find out about your DNS setup. -- Suresh Ramasubramanian | President, CAUCE India [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.india.cauce.org | Stopping Spam In India -- They're not bugs, they're random features.
