Hi all,

I am almost desperate.

I have a PC in my Office connected directly to the Internet and a PC at home.

I use ppp to have access to the internet from home via the office PC.

I have static IP numbers, and everything is very simple.

Thus Linux configuration has been working for several months:

Office PC: SUSE 5.3 (kernel 2.0.35, pppd 2.2)

Home PC: RedHat 6.1 (kernel 2.2.12, pppd 2.3.10)

I have upgraded(?) the home PC to Mandrake 7.0 (kernel 2.2.14, pppd 2.3.10)
and now the connection has the following behaviour: I cannot get out of
the LAN where the Office PC is! 
Everything is fine as far as I telnet to an IP who is inside the LAN,
when I try to go out almost always the connection times out. 
There are no messages in the logs.

Do you know what's going on?

Grazie e ciao

Ale

ps: you could ask: why did you "upgrade"? Well, the problem is that
we have already 13 notebooks with Mandrake 7.0 that are supposed to use
this setting...

pps: I have also tried to upgrade the Office PC to Mandrake 7.0 but
it doesn't work. I have also tried to connect

Home: RedHat 6.1
Office: Mandrake 7.0

and it doesn't work. I have alrweady written to Mandrake.
