  | | | dial up DNS | dial up DNS 2003-03-25 - By Buddy Bell
Back I have got a modem working on ttyS2 and have been able to connect to SBC-Yahoo thru the 'Debug' button in Dial-Up Configuration. I can ping using a numeric address but cannot get dns service to work. I have tried both selecting 'server provided DNS and putting in a known DNS server manually (though it is a different ISP's dns server - not SBC-Yahoo's - I don;'t know theirs and am afraid to ask). Also and probably unrelated if I use RedHat's dialer from the Gnome menu it sits with a message 'waiting to connect' forever. I left it for 20 min. to see if I could get some kind of failure message but none was ever presented. Thanks for any help. BB
