F10 won't resolve hostnames
 

Crap...! :confused:
Neither F10 32bit nor 64 bit would resolve a hostname... Firefox could open http://75.126.162.205/ but not http://linuxquestions.org...
I saw the same thing with pinging: If I pinged a hostname, it would resolve to its ip address but I got no pings or pongs...
Manually entering the DNS servers didn't fix anything...

Another weird thing is that I was able to receive upgrades after installing the 64 bit version.. However, I still had the hostname issue.

Anyone else run in to this or have a fix!?

Do you get a result running:
I have seen issues before where there is a clash between IPv4 and IPv6, in Firefox you can change settings by browsing to about:config

If you set the value of network.dns.disableIPv6 to true, you may find that this resolves the issue (assuming the nslookup worked)

First of all, Disillusionist... Thank you, that fixed it! :p

Yup, nslookup resolved it fine.... No n/w issues at the OS level...

I changed that, restarted ff, and Bang!!! all is peaches and gravy!
Thanks much!!!!!!!
