Subject: "Address Not Found" after upgrade
I used Ubuntuzilla (a script program) to upgrade to SeaMonkey 1.1.15
from 1.1.12 .
Now, SeaMonkey 1.1.15 is installed, but no page on the World Wide Web
loads.
However, Firefox is working fine. Maybe SeaMonkey doesn't know the DNS
server
to contact ...
I think I'd need to know how to find the DNS server(s), and how to set
up SeaMonkey
so that it knows this.
David:
Does www.sun.com load? www.hp.com? www.ibm.com? If so, then the problem is
the OTHER guy's DNS servers. If not...
Actually, Seamonkey doesn't need to know how to access DNS. That is a
service provided by the OS.
Do you have a file /etc/resolv.conf? If not, you need to make one. It
has entries like:
domain example.com
nameserver 12.34.56
nameserver 23.45.67
nameserver 34.56.78
You will have to find out the IP addresses of the ISP's nameservers
from your ISP.
If you DO have a resolv.conf file, you should check to see if it has
the correct IPs.
If you DO have a resolv.conf with the correct entries, what does a
nslookup www.sun.com
Return? It should look like this:
metis% nslookup www.sun.com
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.sun.com
Address: 72.5.124.61
Yes, www.sun.com does work ...
http://72.5.124.61/
If you get an error saying like "...timed out...", then the problem is
your firewall. You'll need to open port 53 for TCP AND UDP...
