Sorry, been 'away' for a while, I tried a re-install of Fedora 7 to make sure I hadn't done anything wrong. This time I got it to believe I wanted a static IP address (there was a bit of the setup I hadn't noticed first time around) so it has done that right and all looks correct 'as installed' but I'm still getting exactly the same symptoms.

What is your /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf files like?
[fedora@localhost ~]$ more /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 195.74.102.146 nameserver 195.74.102.147
and the uncommented parts of /etc/nsswitch.conf:-
passwd: files shadow: files group: files hosts: files dns
bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files

Are they on FC anymore?
Can you go to 217.32.165.146 ( www.bt.com ) and get a web page?
Yes, the web sort of half works though it's a bit wierd. When I went to www.bt.com it produced the BT front page but if I navigate around to (for example) www.btplc.com it times out.
