Redhat 7.1 can't go outside my local network
 
Hi all
I reacently installed Redhat 7.1 It works fine except I can't go outside my local network. I already set the gateway but still can't see the outside world. When I point my browser to say www.yahoo.com it complains about not able to locate the server www.yahoo.com

Please help.

Sounds to me like you haven't setup your DNS servers. What is listed in /etc/resolv.conf ??

cheers

Hi there

For a start off it would be great if you gave some info on you'r network e.g if you'r behind a firewall a proxy and so on....
Say if you'r behind a proxyserver you'd have to set netscape or whatever browser you'r using to connect through a proxy....
Normaly you would tell netscape the IP-adress of the proxy you are using...
That should be it, but if that's not you'r problem pleace write a new post, but with some more info on you'r network structure..

I did set up my DSN
I look at my resolv.conf and it does show my DSN
