I think I may have celebrated too soon. Mutt and Mozilla still cannot resolve or connect to web addresses. Running 'netconf --status' after 'netconf --update' gives me
"module pythonmod does not exist ? Service samba is not running Executing: /etc/rc2.d/S20samba start" When I try to 'apt-get install pythonmod' using dial-up I get something to the effect that it cannot access servers and that 'pythonmod does not exist'. Also, on booting I note that the samba daemons have started. When trying apt-get 'anything' via cable I get the old 'something wicked has happened' ... I'm running out of ideas. There has to be an easy fix. One thing which confuses me is that linuxconf asked for the name of the system and the domain it is attached to. I named my system 'Tux' and the Domain is presently paradise.net.nz ... 'tux.paradise.net.nz' did not fly and I have now used simply 'Tux' which it does not object to. Any ideas folks ?

Not a very good error message :-( Check that you dns lookup is working, if not check resolv.conf for you dns settings.
