Salut J'ai une ligne ADSL de la Poste et j'utilise donc leur DNS. Depuis ~une semaine, j'ai parfois des problèmes avec le DNS, qui n'arrive pas à résoudre une requête, donc à transformer un domain name dans une adresse IP. Je demande ceux qui utilisent aussi le DNS de la poste si vous rencontrez de problèmes similaires avec le DNS des P&T. Merci Alex

Wireless set-up

by Mark HATHERLY

Hi. I have a Coditel cable connection to a Coditel cable modem. (With reference to recent discussions about various ADSL deals available in Luxembourg, I am happy to vouch for the cable service offered by Coditel if it's available in your area - recently they doubled the connection speed at no extra cost.) At the moment my computer is plugged into the cable modem via RJ45. I am moving house soon and would like to have the computer upstairs in the new place. The cable, however, comes into the downstairs front room. I would like to canvas the group's opinion on the most appropriate hardware to set up a wireless connection under Linux, including recommendations on hardware and where to buy it. My machine is a Dell Dimension 4600 with a Pentium IV, running Debian GNU/Linux (sarge, mostly). There's only one machine at home at the moment, but I want to get a lap-top in the next six months or so. Additionally, although I am reasonably competent, I am not a tech pro, and I have a limited budget, so no Grand Unifying Solutions please!

DVDRAM

by Alex

Hello I have trouble with DVDRAM on LG GSA 4081B. I use SuSE9.1, and when I try to format the dvdram with dvd+rw-format -blank /dev/dvdram the system gives mke the answer: * DVDRW format utility by <appro(a)fy.chalmers.se>, version 4.8. :-( mounted media doesn't appear to be DVDRW but the DVD is a DVDRAM. k3b also reports that it is a DVD-RAM, but asks for a rewritable media. I don't understand, why this happens. Even if I use the force option, it doesn't work. Any idea? Thanx Al
