Sorry bout my last email was not very informative.

The problem i have got is that i can not ping a hostname.
I can only ping a ip address

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    ns1.telstra.net
Address:  139.130.4.5

mib# ping ns1.telstra.net
ping: cannot resolve ns1.telstra.net: Resolver Error 0 (no error)

mib# ping 139.130.4.5
PING 139.130.4.5 (139.130.4.5): 56 data bytes

^C

6 packets transmitted, 6 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 188.929/243.655/343.183/49.385 ms

i am on a lan with internet access.
i have the ip of 192.168.0.5 and the gateway as 192.168.0.1 
the gateway is a Win2k machine

if someone could shed some light on this it would be great
