Why? DNS is setup and works (the name server is on a : different computer). Put all IPs that are referenced in your /etc/hosts file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Andrew Foster | BSDNet Australia Co-Ordinator | | adf@fl.net.au | adf@bsdnet.org - http://www.au.bsdnet.org/ | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
