Mike, thanks for the advice. I will add these lines.
Are these mentioned in the Linux Mandrake instruction notes because I could
not find them ?

My guess is that your ppp settings are just fine. You are connecting to
your
isp. but have you edited your /etc/resolv.conf ?
add the lines:
search <your isp>
nameserver <dns#>
nameserver <dns#>
Your isp should provide you with at least two dns#'s
HTH,
