Thanks for your help Paul but I am having problems with your suggestions. I
went to the disk navigator in my root account but I could not right click on
/etc/resolve.conf. I pulled it up as a file and could do nothing with it. I
then tried to find it through the shell. It was not listed in the etc
directory and I could not right click anything anyway to get properties. Could
you give me a litle more help? Don
