CHECK:

ECS 1.1, FAILED NSLOOKUP:

[H:\MPTN\ETC]TYPE RESOLV2
domain WorkGroup
nameserver 192.168.254.254

ECS 1.0, GOOD NSLOOKUP (THIS IS FROM THE OLD DRIVE H, NOW P IN DRIVETRAY)

[P:\MPTN\ETC]TYPE RESOLV2
domain WorkGroup
nameserver 192.168.254.254

So,

1-They look the same. Why did eCS 1.0 work before?

2-Why isn't this being updated somehow by DHCP? (I thought it did;
tell me why I am wrong?)

3-What should I do? (I assume, pick a nameserver and manually input
it to RESOLV2 using a text editor.)

4-Why isn't this process automatic? I don't ever recall inputting
a value to RESOLV2 in all my years of fiddling with OS/2.
