Re: failed to synchronise current
my resolv.conf isn't empty, there was some stuff hiding at the top. Mentioned it before
nameserver 192.168.0.1
search mshome.net
I'll try those nameservers though
thanks 
I"m just a bit confused by this. My network has always been the one thing that has worked. Wondering if it's more than just a config setting
Hmm from windows I just tried ipconfig /all and says my DNS server is 192.168.0.1 (correct if going through a network?) and DNS suffix is mshome.net.
So windows has the same settings?

Re: failed to synchronise current
Right now it says it's the up to date version
I'm guessing because it can't download the latest list of packages so as far as pacman knows it has the lastest version
why can I ping websites but not access the ftps? If I could figure that out I might be able to get somewhere
Really don't wanna go back to slackware :-s

Re: failed to synchronise current
With this dns ip means that you are behind a nat and probably also a firewall.
From windows can you connect to ftp?? If not it is very possible that nat/firewall is bloking port 21.

Re: failed to synchronise current
Man I think you've got it
Just tried to connect to a few ftps on port 21 and it says connection refused. How did that happen? Time to check settings I believe.

Re: failed to synchronise current
Alrighty, cheers. Just tryna figure out what has gone wrong with my firewall...bloody Norton. Can't figure out how to open this port and why it is closed in the first place.
Sure i'll get there though. Thanks
Right well it's definately Norton Firewall doing it, the piece of junk. I disabled it and ftp access worked, through windows anyway. But I can't figure out how it's blocking it, cause as far as I know it shouldn't be...and it wasn't before.
