Unhappy Mozilla does not connect to any website


Hi,

I have a virtual machine which has Red Hast Linux As Release 3 installed on it. i could ping other machines from this on my network(intranet) but the browser i.e mozilla 5.0 does not connect to any website.

Please help me out of this concern.

Welcome to LQ - I have moved your thread to Linux-Networking as that is a more appropriate place.

Hi,

may be it is a DNS related problem? or gateway or proxy...
can you ping an internet site, let's say www.google.com from your virtual machine? if so, it's just a config problem in mozilla (since i don't use it i can't help you in that way)

if not, try to ping the IP address of google (do a ping on your host machine to have it). If you can ping this IP, then you'll have to configure a DNS in the /etc/resolv.conf of your virtual system.

if you can't ping this IP, then you'll need to configure your network with a gateway (so then you'll be able to go out of your intranet)

both the gateway and the DNS are network specific, so i can't tell you generic values...
