The machine connects fine and allows network traffic to pass through the link. However, certain websites seem to choke. (notable ones are www.chapters.ca and www.hp.com) Using Lynx or Netscape I get the same results, a few bytes of traffic are received and then nothing (eventually the connection times out). =20 The same does not happen in windows. (ugh) I have not encountered any machine that I have telnet/ftp/ssh access to that breaks in this way so I can only confirm that http traffic= =20 is not working. This gateway machine does masquerading, and internal machines and the exter= nal machine react the same way. TIA mh Here is some useful info: mort@galileo:~$ uname -a Linux galileo 2.4.2 #4 Thu Feb 22 14:13:23 EST 2001 i586 unknown mort@galileo:~$ /sbin/ifconfig ppp0 ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol =20 inet addr:209.217.122.37 P-t-P:209.217.122.1 Mask:255.255.255.2= 55 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1480 Metric:1 RX packets:1272056 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1476697 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3=20 RX bytes:430171737 (410.2 Mb) TX bytes:1260803415 (1202.3 Mb) mort@galileo:~$ /sbin/route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Ifa= ce magma * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.69.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default magma 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 --=20 Martin Hicks || mort@bork.org =20 Use PGP/GnuPG || DSS PGP Key: 0x4C7F2BEE =20 Beer: So much more than just a breakfast drink. --4Ckj6UjgE2iN1+kY Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6rSo90ZUZrUx/K+4RAsF2AKC3bmBDJaVB7WHfcDT/cd0wofn+oACfWdgv GiUJY9z45Wb5fs/g2vgchyQ= =WPKL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --4Ckj6UjgE2iN1+kY--
