I'm asking this for a friend:
she installed Mandrake 9.1, and dial-up worked ... well ..
pretty much (I was suprsied because I have never seen a dialup
modem working with linux) ... thing is: it connects to the isp
... but any website one tries to browse to ... it says 'could
not reach host' .. or something like htat .. so it actually
connects, uses the password ... logs in ... but then
everythign is like if it were offline. Ideas please?
I vaguely remember this problem from my modem days. It seems that
you can connect, but can't resolve hostnames.
What dialer do you use ? - If it's the KDE one (Internet
Dialer),open the settings dialog and make sure to set the
correct DNS servers (you've got them from your ISP).
umm .. I don't thinks so, as in windows there was no need to set up
any DNS.
