Just today I switched from RH 7.1 to 7.2. I had high
expectations, but now disillusionment.

The basic problem - I can't connect to my ISP using a dial-up
modem. Both rp3 and wvdial can dial up, connect, but fail to
authenticate.

I also have my desktop and laptop connected to one another with
an ethernet cable. Both machines are now running RH 7.2. The two
machines can ping off of each other without error. But I get a
"connection refused" error when I try to login or copy files between
the two machines with ssh and scp.

Something is obviously blocking my connections with the outside world.
But what could it be? I went ahead and used ntsysv to disable both
ipchains and iptables, to no avail. There is nothing in /etc/hosts.deny.
What else could be blocking my communications?

On RH 7.1 communications worked superbly. I am 100% sure
I am doing everything same as last time, but no dice. Is RH 7.2
this bad, or is there something I've overlooked?

desperate in Taiwan,
Robert Storey
