Look in /var/log/messages for a line like: Jan 20 12:34:24 willow pppd[18615]: primary DNS address 203.109.250.50 If you don't see anything like that, then your ISP isn't giving you the IPs of their DNS servers in the handshake, so you'll need to rerun pppconfig and tell it to use static DNS IPs, and give it the IPs of your ISPs nameservers. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://spacepants.org/jaq.gpg Fortunatley, not all of the world lives in the United States. -- ssl(8), OpenBSD 2.6 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
