is that it worked fine, I configured ppp, brought up ppp1, and browsed Yahoo
on the computer. Then I telneted in via eth0 to the machine, piped X and
started netscape on AltaVista. Everything worked fine.
I disconnected from ppp1 and shut down. Next time I boot, I have the a

to get both to work since Dec. Regards, JES
I didn't understand: are you able to use eth0 just from outside your PC?
Some time I had similar problem with Linuxconf on variuos boxes.
In all cases I resolved the problem giving manually the command:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/network reload
after I configured all necessary files (/etc/resolve.conf,
/etc/conf.modules.....).
This is a command that Linuxconf should give on exit to activate changes,
but sometimes doesn't work well, I don't know why.
take a look to the routing table too, via the "route -n" command, even if
this error gives rise to unresolving problems (maybe is not your case)
Hope to be helpful
