Rep:
Yes - I was editing the resolv.conf file in order to try and see my LINUX PC share on my WIN XP network..
So I changed the one of the 2 nameservers from 195.218.0.9 to 192.168.0.1 to see if that worked out..
But after this and a restart of the LINUX PC the Workgroup in Windows network (LINUX PC ) were gone and the error message popped up..
Then I changed the nameserver back to 195.268.0.9 in the resolv.conf file - rebooted - but then the same error message popped up again..
