Hi,

I have a small problem with my Internet and NIC. I
suppose it's a small thing but I cant find the answer
to that.

I have a Modem and a NIC on the same machine. As long
as my NIC is set with a dynamic IP (Configured using
netconfig) my Mozilla browser works perfectly, but my
NIC, since I don’t have a NET yet (The NIC socket just
hangs without a cord plugged in to it), is unable to
go up on boot. Not a problem but since my NET is not
there yet but trying to go up the NIC halts my boot
for almost a minute before deciding that there is no
NET and continue on with the boot process.

So to avoid waiting on boot I have used netconfig
again to install my NIC with an imaginary IP
118.118.0.0 and net mask 255.255.0.0

Once my NIC is installed with the static IP Mozilla is
enable to resolve names > I sent it to
www.linux.org.il it gives a message that "Name could
not be resolved.

I tried to twick my resolv.conf file but it had no
effect over Mozilla and only reinstalling the NC with
a dynamic IP can make my Mozilla surf the Internet
again.

What should I do to enable Mozilla to resolve Internet
names and have my NIC installed at the same time ?

Thanks
