Kppp connects to ISP but hostnames can not be resolved


Hi All,

Hope u r fine.

I have problem with my KPPP. In fact, the kppp connects my PC to my ISP but I can not resolve any host. I get the massage "Unknown host" in my browser. I checked "/etc/resolv.conf". Although, nameserver's ip is available in resolv.conf, but any host con not be resolved. It is note worthy, that when I look up any hostname, I get the error message "network unreachable". To my surprise, I can connect to the internet and use any site in my browser in my Windows XP on the same PC.

more information about my PC is like below.

Any help is appreciative.

Regards,

Soosho
