Please don't post to the mailing list using HTML mail. Impossible to read in all text mail clients. :-( Is your problem with name resolution or routing? Can you ping to an outside ip but not to a name or do both ways give you problems? Things to check: Are your routes correct after ppp comes up? Are your running a firewall? is it blocking packets? Can you ping your side of the ppp interface after it comes up? Can you ping your ISPs gateway? Pete -- http://www.elbnet.com ELB Internet Services, Inc.
