Simple question - what are the other computers using for a DNS server?

Assuming the YAST screen for SuSE 8.0 looks something like this... http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/sl...e=145&slide=44 ...you want to put the IP address of the DNS server your other machines are using into the field "Name Server 1"

I am _not_ suggesting you fill in the fields or check boxes as shown in the slide.

Alternatively you could run nslookup (using one of your other PCs) on the name of the website you intend to browse to and put the info into /etc/hosts. You probably don't what to do this ;-)

And I know what you mean about SuSE 9 wanting more RAM than SuSE 8 (with a default installation)!
