Which distro were you running? The default in Ubuntu is "Roaming" I think, or "DHCP" will also work... Are you able to get along to the Saturday workshop?

Does the command 'host google.com' give you google's IP address? -- Disclaimer: By sending an email to any of my addresses you are agreeing that: 1. I am by definition, "the intended recipient" 2.
