Have you checked the file /etc/resolv.conf It needs a line like
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the name of your
DNS server) In some cases it can be you default gateway.
This is a text file so you can edit it with your favorite text editor.

Greetz all,
Heeeeeeeellllpppp meee!
I'm pretty much a total linux noob, I installed YDL 4.1 on my Mac
Mini, and everything's great apart from YDL won't recognize my Netgear
DG632 router. I can access the settings file on the router from linux,
so I know it's there, and the router's set up correctly because I can
use it in OS X, but every time I try to access a non-local webpage in
Linux it times out.
I don't know what the hell Device Manager does, because it adds about
5 other devices to the list when I reboot! So, please help a noob with
a hanging internet connection!
Any more questions, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
System specs:
1.25GHz PPC G4 Mac Mini
Yellow Dawg Linux 4.1 DBoot with OSX.4.6
Netgear DG632 (router mode) (Connected to mac using Ethernet port)
1M/bit Broadband
Many TIA
J. Hargreaves
