Maybe because you are using a DHCP setup? *** http://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration#Definingthe.28DNS.29Nameservers The C library and other resolver libraries look to /etc/resolv.conf for a list of nameservers. In the simplest case, that is the file to edit to set the list of name servers. *But note that various other programs for dynamic configuration will be happy to overwrite your settings:* 1. The resolvconf program 2. The network-manager daemon 3. DHCP clients *** Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
