Default routing/gateway/dns settings

Hi

Ok, I'm still setting up my HP.

My /etc/resolv.conf looks like

domain <my subdomain>
nameserver <dns-server-1>
nameserver <dns-server-2>

When I go to http://66.94.230.33, I get a nice Yahoo Page (minus graphics)

However, when I go to http://www.yahoo.com, the domain name cannot be
resolved. The DNS servers are correct; I use them on other machines.

I tried putting my router ip in /etc/defaultrouter, which fixes this
problem in Solaris, but apparently HP does not use the same convention.

My host search order is /etc/hosts, nis, dns.

What do I have to do to get my computer to be able to surf the net?

Thank you,
Tony G.
