My symptoms:
Setting up modem for internet, and LAN for SMB sharing with my laptop is causing bother, as drakconnect (Mandrake network setup tool) will crash if I setup the modem by itself with the LAN enabled. With the LAN disabled in the BIOS, the modem setting up works fine, and thats how I got this email to the CLUG, but enabling the LAN and setting that up by itself causes the default internet connection to revert to the LAN. I then setup the modem again, but with the LAN enabled drakconnect will crash and the default internet gateway reverts back to LAN...
Catch 22! Anyone have any clues here?
Alternatively can I edit some files manually to redirect anything Netscape wants to/from ppp0 instead of eth0?
BTW, the SMB sharing works fine, but with LAN enabled I cannot use the internet due to the above! Drat...
