RE: [newbie] Using Internet
can you ping an IP address??? or no ip or domain?? try: ping 139.130.4.5 If that works, but pinging domains does not.. then you need to add a nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf your ISP should be able to tell you their name server IP... rgds Frank -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Gil Katz Sent: Thursday, 19 December 2002 7:33 PM To: 'Brian Parish'; Linux NewBie (E-mail) Subject: RE: [newbie] Using Internet I'm using modem and the modem connects to the internet and from then nothing And I not using Firewall. -Original Message- From: Brian Parish [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 1:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Using Internet On Thu, 2002-12-19 at 21:53, Gil Katz wrote: > Hi > I got mandrake 9.0 and when I connect to the internet I can do nothing I > mean > I cant surf I can't send and receive mail I cant even ping. > Does anyone got an idea? > Gil > You'll need to give some details on what you have set up.

A possible reason: ppp will not connect if you have default gateway already set when ppp is asked to connect. And you probably have default gateway already set. You must delete your default route to eth0 before you attempt to connect via modem (i.e. via ppp). -- Milos Prudek Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

RE: [newbie] Using Internet
When I installed Mdk9, I had dialup, and a eth0 as well. Using the Mandrake wizard, always seemed to make gatewaydev in /etc/sysconfig/network file point to eth0 change that line to ppp0, then as root, service network restart. Hope this helps. Brian D.

It is possible the Ethernet is set as default gateway so preventing Internet traffic from using dialup. You can test this by typing in a root terminal 'route' You will then get a display of known routes. If one of them shows the default route as being via eth0 then that is the problem.

Open a shell, su yourself as root and then type [without quotes] `vi /etc/sysconfig/network` there is a line in there: GATEWAY=eth0 change it to: GATEWAY=ppp0 This tells it to use your modem and not the ethernet port as your internet input device.
