Ron I'm sure you just hit the nail on the head! I take back my earlier advice, got a bit mixed up and forgot the correct file to edit. Don't know how I could forget since its the first thing I do after a clean install. Bet Ron's advice above fixes the problem. It is a bug in MDK9.1 where the gateway is incorrect for dialup modems and it is necessary to add the "GATEWAYDEV=ppp0". And Anarky, don't forget to restart the network after editing this file: # service network restart Sharrea -- Help Microsoft stamp out piracy - give Linux to a friend today
