]Hello Everyone,
] Last weekend I installed Fedora Core 2 (Redhat's test version) from

]problem with internet setup. My computer is dual boot and I can surf
]internet when I am on windows xp. I cannot do same when i boot my
]computer on Redhat Linux.
] I have cable modem and I am using DHCP as I connect through a
]router.
]1. I used internet connection wizard to setup internet connection.
]Specified DHCP and ethernet as connection mechanism. /etc/resolv.conf
]shows correct DNS IP address and domain name.
]2. ip_forwarding is set to 1.
]3. I can ping other machine on my network, but I cannot seem to
]www.redhat.com. Only thing I can successfully ping is www.yahoo.com
](not sure why that is happening).
]4. eth0 settings also seem to be allright.
]5. route command shows that all unkown IP packets should be routed to
]the gateway (whose IP address is also correct).
]6. If i use webbrowser, it times out after waiting for while for any
]website.
]My gateway address is : 192.168.0.1
]pc #1 : 192.168.0.2 (this machine is dual boot with windows xp and
]fedora core)
]pc #2 : 192.168.0.3 (windows xp , works fine can access internet)
]Yes, firewall is on and iptable rules are default with what ever rules
]are set during installation. Please help in fixing this problem.
Does pinging an ip address work (eg
ping 142.103.234.11
)
If it does and
ping string.physics.ubc.ca
does not work, the problem is with DNS. If it does not the problem is
with eitehr firewall or routing.
