--How did you create the user, ' useradd ' or ' adduser '?

o Which web browser are they using?

o Check to see if the web browser is trying to access a proxy.

I just created another user but this new user is unable to browse sites and getting 'unknown host' error messages instead. The non root user(knoppix user) created during hd install works ok. I even tried to make the groups for the new user the same as for the knoppix user but no effect.

Can somebody please teach me how to solve this probelm once and for all?
