Hi:

On Debian 2, Netscape 4.7, Netscape is failing to locate any non-local
url. NS freezes
when it goes to retrieve the site, be it email, newsgroups or http. I
notice that I'm getting
two dns-helper processes. Other than that, I have no clues. ppp is normal,
and lynx is
working.
Last upgrades were from all from Stable: gforth & java-common. Several
days ago I upgraded ppp,
but I've used NS since then.
Any clues appreciated.
jec
NS failed any URL reference, not just those outside localhost.
After re-installing Debian 2, the problem most likely will resolve itself.
Congratulations, Debian has met the Microsoft standard of excellence!
1) Re-install the operating system to fix application-level problems
2) Uncover a BSOD Easter egg while installing (added bonus with base-config!)
I'd like to thank everyone for the assistance - I'd list the names
individually, but hey - you know who you are!
One last question: Is the order of OS installs before knighthood O log n or
O^2? Just curious...
