What does your /etc/resolv.conf look like? It should have the name of
your isp and the ip addresses of their nameservers. Mine has three
lines:
search nwrain.com
nameserver 205.134.220.38
nameserver 205.134.220.37
nwrain.com is my isp. The next two lines are the primary and secondary
nameservers. Also, set the permission on /etc/resolv.conf to 644. Good
luck,
