How's connectivity? Can you ping by IP address? Try 66.94.234.13 or 216.109.112.135, for example. What's the output of `netstat -rn` ? 2. Are you running a firewall on your gateway that is either a] not handling NAT properly, or b] blocking DNS packets to your box at 192.168.0.3? Just my 2 cents...HTH, Kevin Kinsey
