ALL: To move an off-list discussion back to the list, now that
it's up...

I looked at RESOLV and RESOLV2 over the weekend. RESOLV2 was
empty and RESOLV had similar data to the above. I edited first
RESOLV to match the data above, then added the same info to
RESOLV2. I also made sure that the nameserver addresses matched
the relevant entries in INJOY and the IBM dialer. The web
browser (Mozilla) still cannot reach any web sites.

I repeated the above trials with the nameserver addresses from
my old setup from a year ago with the same result.

This is all happening on a fresh install of eCS 1.2.

Any other information I can provide (log files, configuration
files etc)?

What else can I check?

John
