This looks like a problem I had a couple of days ago. By any chance have you installed the shorewall firewall via Mandrake Control Center? If so once installed you need to configure some stuff before you can browse if you dont you'll be able to connect to the net but not reach any web sites. The usual error is "host unreachable" (I think) If this is the case you have 2 options 1. Configure Shorewall. You can get sample config scripts and info from their website (http://www.shorewall.net/). I didnt take this option so I cant help any further here. 2. Remove Shorewall This I did do. Remove shorewall using the remove software gui. You also have to remove iptables as Shorewall plays with the iptables config (and this is what is actually blocking you). Reboot and install iptables again to get it back to its original state. (You may want to look at other alternatives to shorewall as well). Hope this helps David
