LoveAngeL Lyre Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Hello Nicolae. It is a known problem with the last editions of Viewer 2, especially with users with Mac's. Look this jira: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-25627 A solution for this problem described at the following link and seems that it works for most users: http://neilrobinson.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/a-fix-for-dns-errors/ You need to add the following additional DNS servers to your DNS settings in Network settings under System Preferences: 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 If it doesn't work for you, download an older edition of Viewer 2: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes The older Second Life Viewer versions are still active on the production grid, but are not formally supported by Linden Lab Customer Support.

LoveAngeL Lyre Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 This is a very good new Oz. Often in SL Q&A, we have residents with Macs, who complain for that issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
