I sent this message once before but received a sending-mail error message.  I 
don't know if it went out the first time so if you've already seen it, I 
apologize for the re-send.

Hello all,

I am running Mandrake 7.0 and I cannot get on the internet with Netscape.  I 
have a PCMCIA card and usually connect through a cable modem or DSL line.  I 
have received some suggestions and followed them:

I went to /etc/resolv.conf and entered 
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxx

but this didn't work.  Here is the error message I received when trying to 
connect:

"warning the following hosts are unknown
home.netscape.com
home6.netscape.com
internic.net

Perhaps there is a problem with your name server?  If your site must use a 
non-root nameserver, you will need to set the $SOCKS_NS environment variable 
to point at the appropriate name server. blah blah blah"

I am very frustrated and would appreciate some help.

thanks,

Andrew
