from John original post:
* I think that Resolver is not working on my Iyonix 5.16.
* Web access not affected very much. Immediately after bootup NetSurf
* has to be recycled three or four times before it will go and find
* anything on the Web. This has been the case for about 2 years (I wrote
* about it on this list 13 September 2008). I can live with it.
Rereading that and with the later information, maybe there are two problems
one a fundamental networking problem that might be PSU related and then a
second DNS problem.
* However, now Hermes is failing to resolve my smtp, news, and pop
* addresses and times out with a "cannot resolve address message".
* I have got round it for the moment by putting entries for the above
* with their ip addresses into the Hosts file.
John: Do they all now work reliably or intermitantly?
* The A9Home and my wife's RISC PC work without any trouble It is just
* the Iyo that is having a problem. All the machines are each plugged
* into the same Vigor router.
