Regarding ftp I have similar probs; but - as with http - only some sites seem to be affected. > At that time i was using pppoe (the debian one), it suddenly stoped > working so i tried the one that my provider supplied me (it was > enternet 300), my parcial solution that i don't know how it fixed it > was downloading rp-pppoe, it just worked. As far as I know my provider (T-Online) provides Linux PPPoE drivers, but that are also those pppoe from Roaring Penguin. The sad affair: I do not know anymore if I have the "direct" version from RP or the .deb version...shame...
The interesting point: today I talked with a friend who also cannot reach those sites, neither from home nor university. Both use Linux while the other fiends I talked to use Windoze. Thus, in fact it is a prob of the OS/settings, not the provider/net etc. thx, Timo
