A domain www2.eddept.wa.gov.au cannot be reached from FreeBSD. I have tried to ping this machine from FreeBSD machines and get a cannot resolve error. Using windows or Linux I do not get this error. All machines use the same DNS servers and the domain looks up OK using nslookup (to an alias). Anyone have any ideas - the problem is I am running a proxy server on a FreeBSD box and the proxy can't retrieve the web pages. cheers craig To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
