Hello Lists, (see header)
I am using Kubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) on my second
hdd and three applications, Konqueror, Konverstaion
and Kopete (yes, KDE - Kyonki haha) on my MTNL Triband
line, without specifying the DNS. The automatically
accepted DNS was the IP address of the ADSL Router /
Modem.
(D-Link 502 T)
I wasn't able to get updates using apt-get because,
the command would fetch the first URL and become
stagnant with no network activity over the ethernet
LED.
I finally, decided to add the DNS servers provided by
MTNL, and wow! apt-get could finally understand what
it is supposed to connect to and fetched updates.
Phew! Why didn't the K affect the 'K'onsole. Some
other underlying protocol, perhaps?
That's strange. I too use Triband with my router IP as nameserver and
apt-get works fine. I use Debian sid.
