Jacques/Eric,

   Thank you for your quick messages. That is very good support.

   I've solved my problem with PPPoE - pilot's fault :-(  - thanks for your
hints.

   Concerning "dnscache" I have no clue of what's going on. No message in
any log file. In fact I have to do a "dnscache restart" because, it seems
that dnscache is actually launched at startup but exit prematuraly leaving
the dsncache.pid lock file.

My config is:

      Omnibook 3000 Pentium 233, 144MB RAM
      One Xircom CEM56 Ethernet/Modem (eth0+ttyS03 - modules xirc2ps_cs and
serial_cs)
      One 3Com 3C589C PCMCIA card  (eth1 - module 3c589_cs))
      No HDD  (was dead)

eth0 is my external LAN (10.0.0.*) , eth1 is the internal one (192.168.1.*).

And I'm using ADSL (Netissimo) via eth0 (ppp0).

dnscache configuration is as follow:

   LRP box internal IP = 192.168.1.254
   Querying hosts IP's = 192.168.1
   Dsncache log = YES
   Forwardonly = YES
   IP DNS = DNS of Wanadoo (193.252.19.3 and 193.252.19.4)
   Cache size = 1000000 (default)
   Datalimit = 3000000 (default)
   Multilog parameters = left as it was.

Last, after I restarted dnscache manually, all is well.

Concerning the LCD backlight, I can just decrease light intensity (Fn-F2)
but no more. Still looking for a solution.

Thanks for your help

Christian - Grenoble
