I think you need to put your ISP's nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf, something like nameserver 1.2.3.4 nameserver 4.5.6.7 or whatever they might be. Also, you should make sure /etc/host.conf says hosts bind in that order. And in hosts, something like 127.0.0.1 localhost -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
