Lewis, not only Firefox but also with nslookup.

Hi, Hakan.

If your name lookup issue is with Firefox and/or SeaMonkey, be sure that you have the following preference set to true:

network.dns.disableIPv6

This should now be the default for OS/2, as we do not have an IPv6-aware stack.

BTW, see my private mail re: car pooling to Warpstock.

Cheers.

Lewis,

The conference sounds interesting.  Re your problem with getting a DHCP
address and the troubles I had a month ago, I was back at that same
office last week and the issue was resolved -- the IT person told me
that the address pool was exhausted and anyone logging one would have
had the same problem, regardless of OS.  Now I can get a DHCP address
but am unable to resolve any name lookups... (did not have a chance to
discuss that issue with the IT person.)

First practical use of this DHCP client daemon option, Stan:

I'm in Milpitas, CA for a two-day workshop on large-scale Wi-Fi deployments (see http://www.moonblinkwifi.com/pd_training.cfm). Here at the Beverly Heritage Hotel, there are no less than four 802.11b networks visible from my room, all at between 65% and 70% signal, all  unencrypted, and all - naturally! - on channel 11.

iBahn provides the hotel Wi-Fi, and while I have never to date experienced an issue getting a DHCP address, I just hung forever tonight, waiting. I rebooted; same thing. Finally, I set option 60 to "MSFT 5.0" and bounced the box a final time. Presto! DHCP config came right down. Coincidence? Perhaps. However, I think it may very well be that blasted option. Perhaps W2K3 Server specifically looks for that by default? Not that I know for a fact what is behind the iBahn AP...

Anyway, I wanted to pass this along.

Thanks again for the good info.
