Hello,

I have been trying to configure PPP.  I got it to connect to my ISP
(Earthlink), but ftp, telnet, ping, etc , all give me the message "unknown
host" with everything but localhost.

my netstat -rn gives:

dest            Gateway            flags    Refs    Use    Netif Expire
127.0.0.1    127.0.01            UH        o        16        lo0

I am on a stand-alone computer which receives a dynamic IP address from
Earthlink when connecting with my modem.  I think my problem is with the way
I have hosts, rc.conf, etc setup.  Can somebody please help - I am also at
my wits end here.

Thank you in advance.  Any help, suggestions are much appreciated.

Evan Thomas
