 Steve,
 
 I have tried all possible combinations of IP, DNS and Gateway entries in
 Kppp and still find that the panel and desktop icons do not work after
 using Kppp.  Is there anything else I can try, please?
 
 Thanks.

I had this too, All you have to do is make sure the box "Autoconfigure
hostname from this account" in the IP tab is not checked. Mind you,
It seemed to "revert" for some reason... I have had no problems since
I reinstalled Mandrake (for something else);-).
Perhaps you could try uninstalling/reinstalling kppp with kpackage

Thanks Warren,

I don't know how many installs I have done with Caldera and Mandrake, so
I was rather hoping that would not be the fix.  But maybe I can stand
just Kppp.

Regards.

Steve,

Thanks for advice about KPPP.  When I checked the option was disabled so
I enabled it to see if that works.

Regards.
