Chinese 217 - how-to network

#1 Post by iateadonut »

the internet connection wizard on Puppy Linux Chinese 217 does not install DNS server names correctly. here's how:

open /etc/resolv.conf

you'll see some chinese there before the name server ip address. that chinese should actually be english and say "nameserver" instead, so change it and save.

you'll have to do this every time you run the connection wizard, although the connection will fill this file in with whatever ip address you write in it.

(ps. sorry if this was already posted somewhere.)

Thank you iateadonut, to give this instruction for us.

I think I might have made some small mistakes in the the translation of some scripts.

maybe I could correct it in the coming Chinese E-PUPs,
