Re: [S.u.S.E. Linux] Internet question
Hi all, I installed suse 5.2 and configured my isdn dial-up to my isp using yast. Its *seems* to work ok, it dials in and i have a good connection, only i cant get anywhere. If i try pinging different servers, the only one i get a reply from is the gateway i dial to. pings to any other server dont come back, wether i use numeric ip's or not. i cant even reach my nameserver. Any suggestions please?
When I had this problem, it was because I had the wrong nameserver set up for my IPS, When I called them and got the right numbers, it worked correctly:-)
Its not the nameservers, i know those are correct. Problems, i cant even get to the nameserver. All i seem to be able to reach is the gatewayserver whne i use its numeric ip, everything else doesnt seem to excist, even when i try numeric ip's.

if it's not name servers it might be routing. try "route" after dial-in. see what route is default. do an "route add default ppp0". (default routing should be set by your pppd options in ppp-up, think it was a parameter called "defaultroute") after that, things should work.

I had a similar problem when I was running the tcp/ip under os/2. The problem then was that I had my dialer set up to dial the nameserver instead of the gateway. Under Os/2, I didn't have to worry about any name resolvers, (that was all taken care of automatically), but I think that under Linux, you may need to check your hosts file to make sure that it is not specifying your ips's nameserver dns number? I do know that I had to set up resolve.conf (via yast) so that it looked at the dns number for my ips's nameserver, and then my hosts specifies a different number for my ips? (Mainly because I remembered the problem that I had with the tcp/ip dialer connection under os2). Whoops, I just checked my files, both /etc/host.conf and /etc/resolv.conf list the same number, but I believe from when I first installed Linux, both had to have an entry that pointed to your ips?

When you say "able to reach is the gatewayserver" I presume you get ping responses from it. Don't know if you static IP from your ISP. If so, double check that the correct IP number is being provided in your scripts.
