INTERNET

[vignesh]

I tried it in Fedora Core 3... Each time I login into Gnome it gives me an error saying.Can`t find host localhost.localdomain..

It stops comming only if I delete my internet connection and modem configuration .Any help....

try checking your /etc/hosts for hostname been set.

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost

if you configured using a static ip address,try giving that

192.168.1.2     muaahha

and try "hostname" command for o/p.if possible try /etc/init.d/networking restart

Thanks will try that..Is it possible to connect to the net without asking the admin or root password ?

but its not good as with security.the thing is U need to set few commands (i dont tried myself) SUID bit.for egon,poff etc..
try in CLI "whereis pon"
#nautilus &
cd into /usr/bin.rightclick on pon,poff and browse to permissions tab and set SUID.

This is not working..There is no pon.poff.in /usr/bin
