Hello Zenwalk forum,
I try not to post until I have exhausted all of my resources, which is what I have done.
I installed Zenwalk version 5 and I use wvdial to dial up to my Internet provider but I can't access the Internet with the browser nor can I check my email even though the email program is configured correctly.
I have made myself a member of almost every group in the users utility and I ran netconfig to activate loopback (and DHCP just in case).
And the problem persists if I log in as root or non root and I don't have a firewall enabled.
Here is a copy of ifconfig:
Code:
root[roy]# ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

Can anybody please help me?
Thanks in advance,
Roy
