Ok, first make sure you are able to establish a connection to your ISP or to
the net. You can use 'ping' for this (i.e. ping google.com). If you're still
getting that error try 'nslookup google.com' and see if that works (no need to
post the output here). If not, then please post more details about what you
did and the outcome of those things you did.
