I have updated my Mandrake 9.2 system and after that i cant gat any pages frpm internet. I use kppp to dial-up and it connects to internet without any problems. But when I write an adress in Mozilla or Konqurer it tells me to check if the adress is right.
What has got wrong?
When I write in the terminal /sbin/ifconfig eth0
It replaies:
Lin encap: Ethernet HWaddr
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txquelen:100
Interupt:10 Baseadress:0xd000
Try going to http://216.239.51.147. If that works, and www.google.com doesn't, then you will need to configure the DNS (get the addresses from your ISP, and put them in KPPP).
This may be more than a resolving issue - your receive (RX) and transmit (TX) counters on interface eth0 are both 0 - even if you haven't tried to get out anywhere, these should have incremented when your dialup connection completed the handshake. So it may be a problem with Mandrake recognising the interface itself, regardless of resolving issues (your /etc/resolv.conf should have been left intact by an upgrade).
