Re: [SLE] Ping - netstat - dig results to "cannot connect"

      When you use PPP the current resolv.conf gets moved. If the process dies 
unexepectedly you sometimes can get in a state where the original has 
been moved, but it hasn't been replaced by the information provided as 
part of your dial-up session.

Absolutely normal is what? That file just disapeared
from /etc? I don't think so but perhaps normal would
be to get a backup copy to /etc/ppp which I would
agree with.

Absolutely normal: when you connect and have set up
automatic dns change,
a backup is made of the previous resolv file.
Investigate /etc/ppp/ip-up and
/sbin/modify_resolvconf if you want to know
how.
