Hi!
I'm excited about Basic Linux (3)! I tried a couple other minimalist
distributions, but no other had exactly what I was looking for (plus my CD
drive is kind of broken).
I'll get to the point: everything works nicely, except dial-up connection.
ppp-on connects fine (and doesn't connect if I pppsetup a wrong password);
however, once I'm connected, neither pinging websites nor trying to access
them via Links works. Links gives me the error "Host not found." ps shows
that the connection is running, and ppp-off terminates it correctly. Any
ideas of what could be wrong?
A couple things I should mention are that the modem is dialling pulse (I can
hear it… sounds strange) and also, I could connect fine when I was using
Blueflops Linux.
Oh yeah, and is there a way to see the connection log? I couldn't figure it
out.
Thanks for your help!
Lazarith
