Hi all, 

I have been struggling trying to get Netscape to function properly 
for months now.  Netscape has been no help at all.  

The problem: 
Solaris 8 current Recommended patches 
Sparc 2 with Cycle 5 board, 128 RAM 
Cable Modem (Charter Communications) 
Netscape 4.76 

Netscape will not resolve URL's.  I can get to internet 
sites by IP, but not when I use the URL.  Once I get to 
a site by IP, if I select a link with different URL it 
can't resolve it.  I can get e-mail from my ISP with 
Netscape if sendmail is running. 

StarOffice works fine (Resolves URL's, gets e-mail). 
Mozilla works fine (resolves URL's and gets e-mail). 
Command line works fine (can nslookup any valid URL). 

I have tried IE5, but It will not come up.  Get message 
that it is not compatible with SunOS 5.8 and 

"gma_morecore_shm->shmget: Invalid argument" 

Readme file says it works on "2.5.1 and higher". 

Why will Netscape not resolve URL's?  What is it looking for?
