It connects like a dream. But - lynx and netscape tell me they cannot extablish a link to the provider or that website is not found. I have looked at the configation files rc.conf, hosts, host.conf, ppp.conf, ppp.linkup and resolv.cf and they all look ok. Can someone help. It must be something very simple. I don't have the problem on a notebook with FreeBSD, same version 3.4, nor on the same physical machine running Linux.
