Re: OT: can't access slashdot.org and freshmeat.net

Type '/sbin/ifconfig' and see wheter there is an excessive number of 
error packages. From time to time (probably they just had one machine 
not working right or something), I had problems with my ISP (dialup 
ppp) so that there were more and more erroneous packages. They seem 
to have fixed that. Could have been a combination of a kernel 2.2.x 
bug with the os on the ISP's side.
