Hello again all,
I finally got my external modem (yaay!) and so it was with great
excitement that I setup the thing and all. (made sure it worked in NT
first, just to be sure). I got it up, tested the modem in kppp..it
worked! Great so far...I dialed my ISP...(it took a _very_ long time to
log in - not a good sign) and then...I was connected!
I could ping the remote connection server just fine. Unfortunately,
that's all I could do. What the heck?! I tried several times - even went
back to NT - I'm in NT now :(
Just to see if my ISP was being flaky. Nope. It's working just fine. So
what on earth could be wrong here?
There must be something I missed somewhere but I can't figure out what
it is. I configured another Mandrake box and dialed and it worked, no
problems. What's the diff? Well...the other box I was lazy and just
installed as a default "workstation" in the install menu. This one, I
did custom but what could I have missed? Installed by mistake / not
installed?
Damn...so close and yet so far. _Any_ help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm so sick of NT already...I can't stand it anymore! :-(
TIA.
