RE: ADSL connection problem

2001-10-24 Thread James
Not really the list for this, but...

1.  Is your link really up?  Can you ping the IP of yahoo.com
(64.58.76.226)?

2.  Can you ping your ISP's DNS?  Is that IP correct?

3.  Have you tried putting in another organization's DNS server?

4.  What is your syntax in /etc/resolv.conf?

Mine is:

search dyn.optonline.net optonline.net
nameserver 167.206.112.138
nameserver 167.206.7.4
nameserver 167.206.112.4

Subject: ADSL connection problem


Hi,

I use an ADSL connection. The link  seems to be up, because I can ping my
own
fixed IP address. I have configureg the IP address of my provider in
/etc/resolv.conf, but I can't resolve any name. Where is the problem ?

Regards

Your /etc/resolv.conf file should contain the ip addresses of
nameservers.  Is that what you are referring to when you state IP
address of my provider?

Can you ping any other externel IP? (e.g. 198.186.203.20)

 fixed IP address. I have configureg the IP address of my provider in
 /etc/resolv.conf, but I can't resolve any name. Where is the problem ?

the IP address of my provider is the IP address of the DNS server of your
provider ? if not, it may be the problem !

resolv.conf must contain one or more lines with nameserver xxx.yyy.zzz.www
where xxx.yyy.zzz.www is the IP address of the DNS server of your provider.
