as per my other email - i am upgrading from debian potato to woody.... i use rppoe to go on my DSL connection... now when i boot i cant ping any internet sites... i get my loopback fine, i get my address on ppp0 o.k. too... i am connected, just not getting out to the internet. i noticed in the routing table there are tap0 devices, i am not familiar with them... also, there are no gateways in the routing table... i tried adding the gateways i used to have ( i can still connect in caldero OL 2.3) but that didnt work... here is my new routing table, before i add anything: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 10.5.1.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 tap0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 tap0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 tap0
here is the old one (from Caldera partition - i assume the potato was similar): Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 10.5.1.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 10.5.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 P.S. - i think you could actually ping me via the internet, as i can telnet into my own box with the i.p. address. if you want to test that for me let me know. thank you again, shawn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
