Hi All
I have an extremely frustrating problem with my Mandrake 9.1 machine. When I am in KDE no browser at all will resolve hostnames. Networking is fine, as I can reach websites via IP address, however hostnames just don't work! When I conduct 'nslookup' or 'host' queries via the command line, hostnames are resolved fine, so it's not a DNS issue.
Even GNOME applications, such as Evolution cannot perform hostname lookups.
Something locally is stopping the applications from working, which is extremely irritating - I hate problems which seem to defy all rational explanation!
Anyone got any ideas?
