Hello all,

I have this StarOffice 5.2 up and running, it works fine under linux
emulation (4.1-STABLE). With its built in "web browser" I can connect
to localhost (I have a small apache server) and to any computer on the
network (http, smtp and pop3) via the ed0 interface.

Trouble is, it won't work with the tun0 interface (userland ppp). If I try
to connect to any host over the Internet via tun0, it won't do anything. It
asks the named on localhost, gets and answer, then nothing. It times out
after a while.

Tcpdump says:

A.A.A.A -> my bsd box
B.B.B.B -> pop3 server

Native FreeBSD applications all work, with the same hosts and
protocols (netscape, fetchmail, postfix). I even disabled the local
firewall (ipfw based) but nothing changed.

StarOffice works only through the squid proxy (http only, of course).

Could there be a problem with linux emulation and userland ppp? Is it
a known Star Office bug? Why could tun0 be different? How can I debug
this? Sorry, I don't have any other linux application to test...


bye,
