I've got a problem where I cannot browse the web. I use a number of ISPs and this problem occurs only for 1 of the ISP ( my main account). Using this problem ISP I can still ping and resolve domain names, ftp and even telnet to port 80 on internet hosts. When I use lynx to browse a web sits the domain name is resolved and the text "HTTP request sent; waiting for response" displays but no response arrives. Netscape and Opera have similar problems.
I must have done something stupid in the kernel compilation/iptables as it is one of the few things I have changed recently (re-compiled 2.4.2). But I find it hard to believe it is the setup as the other ISP work fine. I am really struggling with this, any ideas anybody. What should I look out for in syslog/ps ax.... ? help ??? Debian 2.2r3, dell Inspiron 3500, no proxy setup/web cache ( that I am aware of !) Derm
