Running Ubuntu 9.04 fully patched on a custom machine. My typical setup is to assign static IP's to all my machines in the network (simplifies things with the other hardware). This morning, my machine was doing fine and I was able to get out and about just fine, Didn't make any configuration changes then. Tonight, after I got home from work, I can't resolve domain names on my box, but I can get directly to IP addresses. When I switch from using a static IP to DHCP, domain names resolve again and I can get out everywhere. Does anyone know what would have changed to stop resolving domains, and how I can fix it so I can use static again? Thanks.
Ok, I'll have to try these as soon as I get home. – Tom A – 2009-09-02T15:18:11.637
I had the same problem although I didn't have a static-IP, the accepted solution (to use OpenDNS) worked for me. Thanks! – Sverre Rabbelier – 2009-10-13T16:37:55.233
