Thanks guys! But to give more background the host in question IS networking, at this point I can ssh into and out of it.. I just can't resolve externally. [root@LBSD2:/usr/ports]#ifconfig bge0: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 150= 0 options=3D9b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM> ether 00:14:22:38:9e:eb inet6 fe80::214:22ff:fe38:9eeb%bge0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.1.44 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>) status: active plip0: flags=3D8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 lo0: flags=3D8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384 options=3D3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM> inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 [root@LBSD2:/usr/ports]# Also the rest of the network is currently working. I am writing this to you from another machine on the same network as the bsd machien. I was able to download the ports tarball from the freebsd ftp site and scp it over to the bsd host. so that minor crisis has been solved. (grin). But it is still quite necessary for me to get this host resolving external hosts of course! And yes I now realize that csup is part of the base system. But in order for me to use it I must resolve! Not sure how this might have cause this but I edited my fstab file with some nfs mounts like so: 192.168.1.44:/mnt/nas /mnt/nas nfs rsize=3D32768,wsize=3D32768,time= o=3D14,intr 192.168.1.44:/mnt/store /mnt/store nfs rsize=3D32768,wsize=3D32768,timeo= =3D14,intr 192.168.1.44:/mnt/home /home nfs rsize=3D32768,wsize=3D32768,timeo= =3D14,intr And when I rebooted the host pretty much it all went haywire! LDAP, DNS, Apache, MySQL, and even ALL NETWORKING which normally started with the host stopped working. I now have to start each one by hand whatever I try I can't seem to resolve external hosts, tho. So I restored the fstab file from backup and still I am stuck not resolvin= g. /etc/resolv.conf looks ok to me so I would think I that I could ping out of the network. Sadly this is not the case! [root@LBSD2:/usr/ports]#cat /etc/resolv.conf domain summitnjhome.com nameserver 192.168.1.44 nameserver 4.2.2.2 [root@LBSD2:/usr/ports]#ping yahoo.com ping: cannot resolve yahoo.com: Host name lookup failure [root@LBSD2:/usr/ports]#ping sum1.summitnjhome.com PING lCent01.summitnjhome.com (192.168.1.42): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.1.42: icmp_seq=3D0 ttl=3D64 time=3D0.273 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.42: icmp_seq=3D1 ttl=3D64 time=3D0.180 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.42: icmp_seq=3D2 ttl=3D64 time=3D0.186 ms thanks for your continued assistance with this problem!
