I attended the last InstallFest.
My Op System is Fedora core 9.
Several Attendees there worked on my IPCop project at the Saturday
InstallFest..
During that process, there was a long period of time in which my
computer
could not go online. We were stumped as to the cause.
Jack solved the problem when he discovered that in the Firefox Web
Browser
" File===>Work Offline" was Checked. The Check was removed and
access
to the Internet was restored and worked normally.
I brought all the hardware back home and the problem has arisen again.
But now, even if I un-check "File==>Work Offline" my computer will NOT
go online.
The same probelm exists for the E-Mail program (Evolution E-Mail)
When I compose a message and hit "Send," I get an error message like
this:
"Error while performing operation.
Host lookup failed: smtp-server.cfl.rr.com: Temporary failure in name
resolution"
I will send this post but will have to use my wife's computer to do it.
Any suggestions will be gratefully received.
Thanks,
William
