Question For Vengenc . DSL TROBLE
 

I added my ip address to everything... i think, when i went to /etc/resolve.conf , i found that there was a file named /etc/resolv.conf i thought it was a mistake on the computers behave so i changed the name and added an e then i went inside and found this
nameserver 64.81.159.2
nameserver 216.231.41.2

those are my DNS numbers but when i go to ping my routeri still get
$ Ping 64.81.227.1
Ping 64.81.227.1 (64.81.227.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

From 64.81.227.149 icmp_seq=4 Destinationj Host Unreachable
From 64.81.227.149 icmp_seq=5 Destinationj Host Unreachable

also when i do

# ifconfig

Is this right?

The resolv.conf file is a place to add your ISP's DNS entries so your computer can translate name to IP when browsing the web. If those are you ISP's actual DNS IP's, leave the file alone and keep the name resolv.conf or you won't be able to browse the web.

aight

I did all of that, but the error is still comming up when i ping my gateway.

Can you get on the internet at all? Your gateway might be unpingable as it might block such requests?

Is your gateway listed in your lists of routes by typing route?

I typed route and got a whole bunch of etho cards all set to differnt numbers but no eth0 with the right ips, and other info, how can i delete the other cards and add a new one with allt the right information.. Also i was told that i should disable sendmail, how can i do this?
