Dave,

It seems you do not have a dns configured, so the ts is not able to
translate hosts names into ip addresses.
I had the same problem, and i resolved it doing the following:

#vi /etc/resolv.conf

there add the line:

nameserver "dnsaddres"

Where dnsaddress is the ip address of the dns of your internet provider.
