Web browser will no authenticate
I'm at a loss here.
running fedora3 tcpdump shows; hostname.portnumber > 1.0.0.0.http /etc/resolv.conf is OK netstat -rn shows default gateway OK I can ping google OK but cannot connect using a web browser (mostly firefox) but tried lynx (still same) my other PC running windows has no problem connecting to the Internet It appears that the web browser cannot authenticate the TCP/IP number from the URL I've disabled the firewall but still no joy. Any help gratefully received.:scratch: |
"It appears that the web browser cannot authenticate the TCP/IP number from the URL"
That means that your web browser cannot connect to the DNS server. "/etc/resolv.conf is OK" Probably not. You should look at /etc/resolv.conf when you have no Internet connection established. Look at it again after you have the Internet connection established. Also ask your ISP what your DNS server address is. Using those three facts you should be able to chase down the problem. ------------------------------ Steve Stites |
/etc/resolve.conf
shows my adsl modem address for my local network as the primary dns and my ISP DNS as the secondary (their primary), my adsl modem has the ISP primary and secondary DNS addresses. nslookup works fine and authenticates any URL to the correct TCP/IP. If I put the TCP/IP address into the web browser, I can connect to the website. However, entering the URL (and monitoring the network with tcpdump) appears shows that the authenticated TCP/IP address is 0.0.0.1 -- Tried a rebuild with Mandrake 10.1 and had the same problem, trying Slackware at the moment. |
