Hi,
For some reason, the newest FC3 (vanilla) box on my network can access
everything inside of the network (i.e. on the domains 192.168.2.xxx),
yet won't access anything on the outside world (I can't ping an IP
address or something like
www.bbc.co.uk).
The firewall is switched off on the box and I don't have a firewall
running on my router.
The /etc/resolv.conf file has been hand-edited to have the DNS of my ISP
rather than trusting my router.
Any ideas on what is going on with it?

Can you provide output of 'netstat -r'? (is you gateway/default route
setup right?)
Some routers also restrict outside access. Any chance it is setup for
the IP address of this box?
