You won't be able to ping the firewall by name unless you set your DNS server to do so. Setting the hostname on the machine is not what allows DNS name resolution. As to why your not connecting to your internet, it doesn't appear that your getting a valid dhcp lease from Roadrunner. We'll need more information (interfaces file and shorewall config and logs) to help more adaquately. > ip route show: 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel > scope link src 192.168.1.254 > 3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc > pfifo_fast qlen 100 > link/ether 00:80:ad:98:38:25 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -- ~Lynn Avants aka Guitarlynn guitarlynn at users.sourceforge.net http://leaf.sourceforge.net If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
