why am getting error when ever after giving user name and passwd in Fedora 3?
 

Dear friends,

"Coudnt not lookup internet address for for dhcppc0.This will prevent GNOME from operating correctly. It may be possible to correct the problem by adding dhcppc0 to the file /etc/hosts"

please friends don't disappoint me
thanking you in advance.

Are you able to login as root?
have you enabled network login (or something like "Authenticate system accounts by network services")?

am able to login as root as well as user
 

lot thanks for ur reply
there is no problem in login with root as well in user account.
then what may be the reson for this error message?

awaiting for ur reply

try adding following line to /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 dhcppc0 localhost

Looks like your network configuration has got corrupted, are you able to connect to network in fedora? may be a good idea to configure network from scratch
