I traced to to firewall issue. I had gone into security and had added a standard
security and it asked for the shoreline package but the log in /var/log/messages
showed at the end a bunch of<br>
<br>
Nov 20 12:22:34 localhost kernel: Shorewall:OUTPUT:REJECT:IN= OUT=ppp0 SRC=12.86.219.83
DST=66.35.229.200 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=255 ID<br>
=0 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1151 DPT=80 WINDOW=0 RES=0x00 RST URGP=0<br>
<br>
I took the the firewall down - no firewall - and shutoff the shoreline deamon
from services. and I was able to get through fine.<br>
<br>
Befroe that I had shutdown the http and the ftp and couple of other servers
but the problem persisted.<br>
<br>
My routing showed OK with ifconfig (as below).<br>
<br>
I still do want to <br>
1 -How I can get the firewall up and go on the net - In RH I had a firewall
at medium and was bale to go out fine.<br>
2 - Does running a server(s) conflict with going on the net -if it hogs the
ppp port.<br>
<br>
But it works for now.<br>

<pre wrap="">Pervaz:
If you find out, let me know. I got the same problem with 9.0. I put it on a
spare drive and screwed with it for a couple of days, got totally frustrated
and blew it away and put Win98 on that drive. ( I needed 98 for a project) I
normally use Mdk 8.0, but I would like to upgrade.... to something that
works, of course.

of ppp connection. I.E. is this over a modem or ppp over ethernet for a
dsl connection or some kind of vpn ppp connection. Given the limited information
here the first thing I would guess is the resolve.conf check /etc/ppp/resolve.conf
and see if it is modified with new dns when you connect if so then make
a link from /etc/resolve.conf to /etc/ppp/resolve.conf . If this doesn't
work then I would check the routing table on your linux machine with route
-n. You should see something to the effect</font></span></div>
