Hey, there's nothing wrong with RH9! I run it (among other things) :) I'd try /var/log/messages for a start. Another option is: service named status Thirdly, try "digging" from your box: dig itasca.net Forth: Try on the internet doing a "WhoIS" for itasca.net to be sure it's still active. Fifth: I had an odd (similar) situation once that turned out to be my router. If I rebooted the router, the problem would go away for awhile. It turned out to be a hardware issue which was solved by replacing the router. Good luck! > Hey all, > > I've got a RH9 box (I know), and am using Pine and Sendmail... most of the > time.
