I think it was a temporary problem resolving security.ubuntu.com. Try again, and if it doesn't work, post your /etc/resolv.conf here.
casper@webserver:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 172.16.16.4 nameserver 218.6.200.139 nameserver 61.139.2.69 casper@webserver:~$
Are these valid nameservers? If not, you can try this in /etc/resolv.conf: Code: nameserver 145.253.2.75 nameserver 193.174.32.18
how? just add them or is there another way to create additionl namservers If I vi the resolv.conf and restart networking they change back to original namservers. As I said below (you obviously deleted it) You falko are the only one responding to posts, we must wait 24 hrs for a reply from you, ubuntu<dot><com> takes forever to load and everyone is just posting new threads (very disorganized) plainly speaking its dissapointing that ubuntu being so popular would have this kind of support. Franky I get better support from windows (and thats not saying much) so in short I have decided until someone can give good support, readable how to's for the new to linux user, and links to updates that are not dead, moved, or no longer supported (ie China, Hong Kong, and most of the other Asia countries) Thank you but I will stick with windows where I can atleast use xamp.
Yes I saved it. restarted networking and *poof* reverts back to original. I have decided just to go back to windows. ubuntu forums take an hour to load and new posts every 3 mins with no replies. Here it seems you are the only one offering support and I must wait 24hrs for a reply. I can not spen 3 weeks just installing this to test my scripts. Ill just go back to windows where I get support when I need it. Thank you just the same
