/tmp was already 1777, but your second post fixed most of the |
| 19 |
problem, ie /etc/resolv.conf was 600 now 644. |

Now I can browse with konqueror using names instead of ip |
| 22 |
addresses. |

I still have one minor problem that I have seen before. Some |
| 25 |
distros have the problem, some don't. I still can't use the |
| 26 |
name for my mail server under sylpheed, just the ip address. On |
| 27 |
my Sybil (Caldera 3.1 Beta) distro, this works, but |
| 28 |
/etc/resolv.conf, etc., looks pretty much the same. |

This isn't a biggie. I've never figured it out. |
