If you do not know the DNS address used by your ISP look in your Windows computers config, or the support site of your ISP.

RE: [newbie] PROBLEM WITH IP ADDRESS
Title: RE: [newbie] PROBLEM WITH IP ADDRESS Seems to me you are sharing the internet access with your lan from your computer. If that is the case did you use the share internet connection wizard found in MCC under Internet connection as I recall. If you are sharing the lan with your linux comp then you should show in the configuration of internet access that the gateway is your xxx.xxx.xxx.10 computer and DNS is something like 68.12.13.14 from the ISP . I believe this should show on all of the computers that want to access the internet. Hope this is clear and helps. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Nestor Castro Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2003 6:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] PROBLEM WITH IP ADDRESS Derek Jennings wrote: On Wednesday 10 Dec 2003 10:04 am, Nestor Castro wrote: Derek Jennings wrote: On Tuesday 09 Dec 2003 8:01 pm, Nestor Castro wrote: I hope someone can help me with this, I'm totally newbie on Linux.

Do you have only one network card in your box? I am also a newbie with Linux but it surprises me that ifconfig is showing eth1 and no eth0. Is it possible? Again, do you have only one network card in your box? If so, I am totally lost. Me too, if you only have one network card in your box, are you using a switch to connect all together? Even so, the gateway box needs to have an eth0 for the internet and an eth1 for the LAN. Or you tell your comp to share by typing drakgw then enter in a su console. Follow the wizard, but I am still not sure how this could work without two net cards. -- Dennis M. linux user #180842 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
