Internet access mandrake 9.1


Sorry if this is in the archives, but I could not find anything immediately relevant.
Reinstall of Mandrake 9.1, have set up shorewall(2.0) firewall and have local network/samba/cups running (sigh).
Dialup works in the sense of being able to connect to my ISP, but no access to the net and pinging the nameserver in resolv.conf gives "Destination host unreachable"
Previously I had found this happened when the default Drake.conf firewall setting was anything other than "Allow everything" but now no joy.
Unfortunately I have had to go to my Windows partition to access this, and therefore cannot get to log files.
Thanks for any help

Russell
