Hi Matthias, here are my hints to help you solving your problem: 1. Open a root terminal 2. Enter the command 'tail- f /var/log/syslog' This shows you if your isdn connenction works (and other stuff) 3. You must enter a reasonable value for the nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf (for more check out 'man resolv.conf'). Your ISP should have given you a value for this. 4. Do you use pap-access-control ? This doesn't make it easier :-(. Than you need to edit the /etc/ppp/pap-secret file. The designated user in this file must correspondent with the value in the file /etc/isdn/ipppd.ippp0 5. A good place for more help is www.suse.de. There is a support database. Good luck Matthias -- Matthias Mueller +49 30 449 80 68 [EMAIL PROTECTED] --
