Hello,

HELP!!

I have a 918lx and a router configured as follows -

[C 192.192.192 201]  Neighbor Gateway IP Internet Address

                        Configured Reachable Networks

         IP Network Address      IP Mask (Optional)    Hops
         [@                ]     [               ]     [1    ]

I have configured RESLVCNF.NET and linked this to /etc/resolv.conf. It
contains -

domain milkyway.space
nameserver 193.113.209.14
nameserver 193.113.209.46


If I use NSLOOKUP it shows that names / addresses are being correctly
resolved

nslookup.sys.threek www.gainsborough.com
Server:  radius.btconnect.com
Address:  193.113.209.14

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    tower.netlink.co.uk
Address:  194.88.140.9
Aliases:  www.gainsborough.com

However, in FTP I cannot connect using the domain name ONLY the address -

%ftp
File Transfer Protocol [A0009001] (C) Hewlett-Packard Co. 1990
ftp> open www.gainsborough.com
Cannot connect to host: www.gainsborough.com  (FTPERR 9)
ftp> open 194.88.140.9
220 tower.netlink.co.uk FTP server (Version 6.00) ready.
Connected to 194.88.140.9.  (FTPINFO 40)
Name(manager):

Any ideas on why I cannot use a domain name only an IP address?
