Yea, it took four minutes and then everything wents correct. OK. But some
questions:
1: Why does this only happen as "user" and not as "root" ? It should be
suposed that also the "root" netscape wants to access a DNS server  ?
2. How can I avoid it ? My http://localhost/ is_local_stuff

http://localhost/ brings up Apache http Server Startpage ( ??) which is the
Linux SuSE portal

Thanks a lot for the help !
