You could have saved a week an anguish by checking this instead of fumbling with the DNS. We ssume that when you say 'dial your ISP' that it works unless you say otherwise.... Your ISP requires PAP authentication even though you've logged in manually. Edit /etc/ppp/ppp.conf and make sure a 'set authname arifin' and a 'set authkey your-password' appear in the profile you're using for your ISP. See the 'pap' profile for an example. > it will disconnect automatically. > but if not, will appear: > ppp on arifin> ^^^ Please read the documentation. The first thing it says that when you get connected, this changes to PPP on arifin> to let you know the connection is up. If the p's don't become P's, you goofed something up.
