Talking VPN Client installed on FC3, but still can't surf!!!


Hi,
Just for a information, I'm gonna be from the group of people who ask the funny beginners questions

Anyways, I installed (managed after 2 days of trying) the new version of VPN Client "vpnclient-linux-4.6.00.0045-k9.tar.gz " and even started it, buit still can not surf the internet!!!
I can even ping and I see the IP-s and whatever, so I thing everything is fine accept that I can't surf!!!
All of this is happening on a Fedora core 3!!!
Could the answer be at the configuring the ports for the Firewall or something like that! and if it is, can somebody explain me that in some decoded language
please be so kind, and help me

thanks!
a beginner!

Wondering why you need vpn to surf the net .. shouldn't you use Firefox instead?

it's ok, It was there, just needed to start the client once more, and actually not to close the terminal wich is some strange, but maby after restarting will be fixed!!!
Anyways thaks!

And for the others who will ask the same thing, try VPNClient 4.6... there are no probl. with configuring etc... I mean I'm a beginner and I still did it!
