If so, you may want to put it in /etc/resolv.conf. If not, you will need to put each host you want to be able to reach by name in /etc/hosts. If you only need to reach one or a few hosts, the latter would be the best solution even if your office does run dns. The ppp peer at the office end must be properly configured as a gateway, unless it is the only host you need to reach. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI
