RE: Server Not Found Error Message

Add to "/etc/resolv.conf"

domainname "yourdomainname"
nameserver "yourDNSserverIP"


Firefox nor any other application that uses hostnames will encounter
your error because they can't resolve domain names

Subject: Server Not Found Error Message

I am connecting wireless to a network called "conferences". I do
get
an IP address, Broadcast address, Primary and secondary DNS. When

typing ifconfig, I can see ath0 and wifi0 and there is activity.
But
when I go to Firefox it says: Server not found

I was given the website address for authentication which I typed at

System -> Preferences -> Network Proxy.

Any help

Arnold
