sorry, it sent by mistake...so let me finish.


Hopefully I'm not asking something that's already covered (I'm sure I am)
but I've looked all over and I can't seem to find any help.  So I built my
first vserver.  My Host is a Centos 5 box (5.2) and my guest is the same
(Centos 5.2).  I've got it up and running, I've been able to install
everything I need on my guest (httpd, mysql, php, etc) using vyum so it can
act as a web server.  My problem lies in once I've in my vserver, I can't
get out of the machine (ping, etc) using names.  This would leave me to
believe DNS is not working properly.  My first thought was to check what my
/etc/resolv.conf had in it.  The file doesn't exist, so I created it, added
my nameservers but it still can't lokup hosts.  I can ping by IP and it gets
out fine.  What am I missing?  Do I need to create a default route?  I don't
know if I have my interfaces configured properly even.  I followed the wiki
page to a "T" using yum to install everything.


HELP!

Thanks,
Caleb
