My problem is that kppp connects well to the isp but in the browser or email client, no site is accessable. I checked out the firewall by disabling it too. If I use the system's 'network device control', it connects as well as opens any site. But it shows the connection as 'inactive' and so the 'deactivate' button is never highlighted, so the trick, to shut it. After this first ritual, kppp connects as well as opens sites till I don't shut down or reboot my syatem. What I observed before and after running the 'N D C' was that the lsmod command lists 3 modules only after the ritual. They are ppp_async, ppp_generic and slhc. I will go to your site and find out the local scripting. If I can add these modules in the startup script, this ritual may not be necessary.
