Either way.  The weird thing is that name service appears to be working, so SOME 
packets come back.  But pings always time out with no response.  And I can't get to 
any web pages.

/etc/resolv.conf does contain the correct IP addresses for primary and secondary name 
servers.

No firewalling at all.  /var/log/messages shows successful login (and later, 
successful hangup).

I used the Kppp GUI to configure the link.  Does Kppp leave a configuration file 
somewhere, so I can post it to the list? 

What else should I be posting that will help diagnose the problem?  This is very 
frustrating.
