Internet Problem!
Hi,
I am using Slackware 10.0 and I jsut created an internet connection (dial up) using pppsetup. Then running ppp-go. I am connected to the internet but no web-related program works. Neither mozilla, netscape, gaim...they all say they cant find what they are looking for. I am positive it's connected because it tells me so and I tried doing PING and I recieve packages back whihc proves I am connected. I am totally new to linux and I have no clue on what to do. HELPPPPP! thanks, matteo |
Interesting, I never knew about pppsetup!
I set up my internet connection in Slackware 10.0 using Kppp found in Kmenu > Internet> kppp Pretty easy tool to use. |
I believe you need to add the addresses of your DNS servers to /etc/resolv.conf:
search local nameserver 4.2.2.1 nameserver 4.2.2.2 Of course, yours will be different. You can get these from your provider. HTH |
if you're using dial-up, configure KPPP to run your internet connection...
|
DONE!
Thans Franklin,
I called my internet provider and they told me the DNS servers. I plugged them into the file and everything seems to work. THanks a lot. matteo |
