Look also at your resolv.conf AFTER (while) the connection with your
KWvDial.
He must be changed by your dialer.
See what happen.

 Edit your /etc/resolv.conf
 add:
 search your isp
 nameserver dns#
 nameserver dns#
 
 Your ISP should provide you with two dns #'s

[newbie] ISP NETSCAPE

2000-05-02 Thread Jeffrey Buckley

I finally got my computer to dial out  connect to an ISP. I used KWvDial.
Two problems. I can only connect in root login. I don't know how to set
permissions so I can do it as user. Then once I connect, Netscape says
that I'm not connected. Any Suggestions? Thanks!

IN KDE:
from a term run netcf

when the screen comes up find your ppp0 adapter
check its properties...somewhere in there is a checkbox that says Allow any
user to disconnect/connect this service...or something like that..

another thing you can do is log in as root (stay in console)
establish the connection either manually:  #ifup ppp0
or via Kppp or whatever you are using in KDE
shudown KDE
then hit the keys CTR-ALT and F2
it should bring you to another log in screen..log in as a user and away ya go
:)

this assumes that you are not booting to a GUI prompt but rather a console
prompt.

Same problems I had when I started off with linux
