I know they are okay, because I pretty much know what I'm doing. I'm new to LRP not Linux. I can ping the LAN resolver, and it does work. I forgot to mention, I've also checked the iptables rules and they are okay, verified by no messages in the log. I also tried adding these to both the lrp and the LAN resolver. # iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT # iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j LOG --log-prefix "DNS-in " The LAN resolver logs other host lookups but not the lrp. Likewise, the lrp logs when I dig it, but no log when I try to ping a hostname, I can ping the resolver by ip. >>ping galis.org just hangs. not sure how else to look up a name, am I >>missing a package?

I didn't assign a broadcast address when I brought up the interfaces, could that be a problem?

So I ask, what is used for host lookups (the udp/53 call) on lrp? // George -- GEORGE GEORGALIS, System Admin/Architect cell: 347-451-8229 Security Services, Web, Mail, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] File, Print, DB and DNS Servers. http://www.galis.org/george ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Caffeinated soap.
