[S.u.S.E. Linux] Nothing will work with kppp
I was able to configure kppp in KDE to connect to my ISP, but nothing will use it. Netscape or any of the mail programs. I am also unable to ping anything either. Any ideas??

How do you know you are connected if you cannot ping anyone?? Have you looked at your routing tables?? route Try: route add default ppp0 hope this helps mc -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
I'm sure I am connected. The modem dials out and logs on to my ISP. I can see the logon process. Plus, I have an External modem which defintely shows a connection. I'll try this. Steve Montgomery Michael Clark wrote:

I had the same problem, try this, after making a connection with kppp try pinging an i.p. number instead of a name for example " ping 206.191.128.61 -c4 " and see what happens, if you get it to ping it is because you don't have the nameserver & i.p. numbers set right. Use Yast under Sytem admistration/Network Configuration/ Configuration Nameserver. Kristian Farren kf@wa.net
