Justin et al;

Thanks for you help, but I do not fully understand what is going on here.
I still have the MNF default rule:
        15      ACCEPT  lan     wan     tcp     http
So I am not sure how adding your suggestion will help. I added it
anyways, but to no avail :(   ...

About my isp, issue you mention to turn on more verbose logging.  
]#ps -ef |grep ppp
Root    27162 27151  0 21:40 ?  00:00:00 /usr/sbin/pppd pty /usr/sbin/ppp
Root    27163 27162  0 21:40 ?  00:00:00 /usr/sbin/pppoe -p /var/run/-ads

So this tells me what options are being used with pppoe.
So I would change this to pppoe -p -D /var/log/myAdslLog.log   ?
But I cannot find any where pppoe is being invoked, do you?
I checked /etc/init.d/adsl and others but it alludes me.

And what rule would I have to write to allow ppp keepalives?
Allow wan fw icmp ?  That seems undesirable.

Thanks again,
Ryan

What you're seeing here is requests coming from 192.168.1.200 (SRC) and
going to 212.85.147.168 (DST) on port 80. These are most likely web
requests, and can probably be solved with a simple rule something to the
extent of:


ALLOW   Source:LAN      Destination:NET Port:80

substituting in whatever you named your local and outside zones.


HU> 2. Again from syslog, I see this message regularly as well:
HU> ez-ipupdate: ez-ipupdate shutdown failed

I believe this is a dynamic DNS program. Not sure why it would be failing
shutdown (not configured correctly?) but you shouldn't worry about it.
You can always do a chkconfig --del ez-ipupdate and never see it again.


HU> 3. Finally I have been having issues with my isp, I see this
HU> set of messages in syslog, way too often, are they telling me that
HU> MNF is disconnecting from the isp, the other way around, or is the
HU> connection being dropped due to network error?

Hard to tell, but it looks like the connection was terminated
unexpectedly. You can turn on more verbose PPP messages to get a clearer
message, but it's hard to tell from that information what might be your
problem. Maybe your firewall is blocking ppp keepalives? just a thought.
