I've got a big problem, I hope someone can ppoint me in a direction on. I have a machine that lives behinf a corporate firewall. Historicaly, I have been able to get dslect to work using "runsocks dselct". I needed laregfile support on this machien, so yesterday, I canged /etc/apt/sources-list to point at testing, went ito dselect, and did an "install". Then I downloaded the 2.4.2 kernel, built and installed it using kernel-package.
Now I have several problems, the bigest one of which is that dslect does not work anymore. Specificaly, I get messages like "Something Wicked happend resolving SITENAME" where SITENAME is for instnace "http.us.debian.or/http". Whats realley strnage is that I can "runsocsk ftp ftp.debian.org" and get a good conection. Could some kind soul sugest where to star, fixing this. I am in big trouble fixing the otehr problems untill I get the abiloty to load packages! -- Stan Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] 843-745-3154 Charleston SC. -- Windows 98: n. useless extension to a minor patch release for 32-bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16-bit patch to an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit microprocessor, written by a 2-bit company that can't stand for 1 bit of competition. - (c) 2000 Stan Brown.
