Anyway - soon after I got World of Networking in there - DNS would only resolve for a few seconds in Moxilla. Without World O' Networking - it was fine I used it for months. I turned off World O' Networking file and print sharing off. Still no hope. I'm in NetBSD 4.0.1 om another partition posting now. I wish I knew a simple answer - where is the file that tells my tcp/ip how to properly send DNS requests to my ISP's server. Yes WON sets up in an auomated fashion - but I can't get under the hood to fix a glich - which is a problem if things are too automatic - unless you have lots of money behind the code or some extremely uncannily talented coders.
