I should have said the browsers display unknown host.
I got Knoppix 3.4 to boot with noscsi option and got kppp to connect but then when I fire up a browser I get page cannot be found. Tried Mozilla and Konqueror. Everything else seems OKay. Where should I be looking?
I should have said the browsers display unknown host.
I get a good connection so in terminal I can ping an IP address but not a hostname....hmmm
Maybe my DNS is broken?
I then edit /etc/resolv.conf
root@toppix:/home/rob# cat /etc/resolv.conf
search nccw.net
nameserver 205.158.183.100 205.158.183.102
# Insert nameservers here
# nameserver 127.0.0.1
root@toppix:/home/rob#
now everything works.
