hostname lookup failure

[JParker@coinstar.com]

G'Day !

I just upgraded my kernel to 2.2.17 and in the process broke something.

I have a PCMCIA ethernet (eth0) card and a PCMCIA serial modem (ppp0).  Majority
of the time, I'm disconnected. (using only loopback)

I have setup all my networking stuff like I did for my desktops (kernel verson
2.0.36), and as recommended by the Net-HOWTO.  Should I do something special for
PCMCIA ?

cheers,
Jim Parker
