Hello:
I just upgraded my kernel from version 2.2.18 to 2.4.5. I am running the
"potato" version of all my programs, except the following:
modutils 2.4.6-2.bunk
ppp 2.4.1-0.bunk
modconf 0.2.32
I downloaded these .deb's from the following link:
http://www.fs.tum.de/~bunk/kernel-24.html
Which I found by following the link titled "Running Linux 2.4.x with
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2" from Debian's main page.
Everything seems to be working okay, except ppp. When I run "pon", my
modem dials, connects to my ISP, and I can see that I am assigned an IP
address by using ifconfig.
However, no network programs will run. For example, fetchmail quits with
a "temporary nameserver error." My /etc/resolv.conf file is correct---it
has two "nameserver" entries. When I try to run nslookup, it dies, and
says something like, "server didn't return address." Then I tried
ping'ing the nameserver (using it's numerical IP address), and---even as
root---I get a "sendto: operation not permitted" error.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Matt
