re: What did I screw up?
Earlier, I said:
I messed up some configuration, somewhere, and I hope that someone can tell
me what it was.
<SNIP>
Now, however, if I dial in and then try to access anything on the net from
the Athlon, I get DNS resolution errors. I can not access ANYTHING! If I
telnet to the Pentium, then I can get out without any apparent problems.
What config file(s) have I messed up? I'm sure that this is simple to fix,
once I determine what I accidentally messed up.
Well, somehow the default gateway entry got removed from my routing table.
I don't see how anything that I installed, or removed, could have done that,
and I certainly did not use the route command prior to the mess-up, but that
is what happened. One route add command later and I am back on the net
again.
Thanks for listening, even if I figured it out myself (that is the best way,
after all).
