Hello, I apologize for cross-posting this, but I haven't recieved a reply from -questions yet, and I need to get this fixed for my job or I will have to switch to Windows. I was running 4.4-release for a long time, and I could access any website on the internet. Then, I decided to upgrade to 4.5-release and now I cannot access certain websites, some of which include www.apache.org and www.bn.com. However, I can access other websites such as www.yahoo.com, www.freebsd.org, and www.altavista.com. I have tried to find a pattern in the IP addresses, and there is no pattern. What seems so strange is that I can successfully ping ANY website on the internet from my machine. When pointing the Lynx browser to http://www.apache.org, it says "Looking up www.apache.org" for about 1/2 second and then it says "Making http connection" for about 2 minutes and then it says "cannot connect!" and then it stops. And, yes, I can successfully ping apache.org. I also tried using Opera and had the same results as with Lynx. I have read the ppp chapter in the handbook about 8 or 9 times just trying to find a clue to whatever I am doing wrong. Last night, I did a cvsup and then a buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, and installworld, and I still get the same results. However, today, I believe I can access a few websites that I couldn't access yesterday, but then again, that could be my mind playing tricks on me. I still cannot access a lot of websites. I am using the same ISP that I used before and that I use in windows, and I only have this problem with this upgraded machine. Anyway, I am willing to send anyone my kernel config file, ppp.conf, or any other file that might be helpful in solving this problem. Thank you all and I look forward to any reply.
