I've just set up a 2.2.7 box to act as a gateway using ppp -alias, using
exactly the same config file as the computer's twin.  For the most part,
web access works quite well, with the exception of some websites.  Sites
like excite or netscape come up fine, whereas sites like mapquest or
elecomm.net give me the message in the browser window of "Site contacted,
waiting for reply", but I never get any info from the server.  Those same
sites when accessed from the gateway machine in lynx come up normally.
I've tried different permutations of unregistered_only, use_sockets, and
the other alias options for ppp, to no avail.  I've even shut off
firewalling in the kernel, and it's the same thing.

Any ideas as to why some sites would come up, and some wouldn't?

Rather frustrated,

J.
