It should not be there. Your DNS machines work fine for me, % nslookup dnet.net.id 202.148.1.196 Server: engine5.dnet.net.id Address: 202.148.1.196 Name: dnet.net.id Address: 202.148.3.189 So, can you ping those addresses using IP addresses (if no, your connection is suspect)? Does getting that 'hostname' entry out of resolv.conf fix it (is it meant to be a 'domain' entry)? -- Crist J.
