DNS browser's problem


i have FC5 box
when i try to access internet with firefox,mozilla or netscape i couldn't open any page (in case i put URL address e.g. google.com)
if i place URL with IP (e.g. http://72.14.203.104/ for google)
it works well

i tried this with konqueror this work very well (both URL and IP)

i don't know how to make firefox work well ?

thanks in advance.

Can you resolve from the command line:

e.g. host www.google.com

If not check to be sure your /etc/resolv.conf has correct entries for the DNS servers you're using.
