Yes, so? The original poster (Pavel, I think) seems to have two independent
problems.

1. Apache doesn't work. This is probably due to the kernel compile error
that the apache logs report. To fix it, recompile the kernel with SYSV
support enabled.

2. Netscape can't do DNS resolution. This is probably a DNS problem (though
it *might* be a Netscape problem). The right first step is to check DNS
configuration. Is the first entry in /etc/resolv.conf a valid nameserver for
the host (i.e., can the host ping it? can the host telnet to its port 53?)?
Can the host do an nslookup on a hostname that Netscape cannot resolve? Ping
it? Telnet to it? Etc.
