..........

some files are important for that purpose:
for example:

* your gateway:
# cat /etc/defaultrouter
192.168.133.1

* your nameserver:
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
search unix.com
nameserver 192.168.133.2
nameserver 192.168.133.3

* nameresolution:
# cat /etc/nsswitch.conf | grep hosts
hosts: files dns

have a look at these files...

thanks, I will check out the files and correct.. I think at least one is missing (resolv.conf) Sometimes you just need a little push in the right dir.
