When your gateway connects, the DHCP server assigns a domain to search for hostnames in, which gets added to /etc/resolv.conf. On your gateway, look in the /etc/resolv.conf for a line like: search belrs2.nsw.optusnet.com.au , and copy that line into the resolv.conf on your client machines. Then you should be able to browse the homepage. -- Pete -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
