aioshin Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 hello to all I really need help with regards to the topic mentioned... dial-in gateway using RH9.. though I am using Mandrake, when Ie tried mandrake to act as a dial-in gateway, I never been successful, so I tried Redhat 9 as alternative, though I got to the point that I can dial-in successfully after several hours of googling references about how to install dial-in - ppp - server...I am using 3COM U.S. Robotics 56K fax modem at the server... .............and this is my problem.... I can dial-in from the client side successfully...... using windows 2000 for testing, though I am able to establish a connection, an ip will be assigned to PPP adapter but.... Aggghhh, i cant browse the internet... it says, ¨cant resolve the address i am trying to open¨, and i cant also open my yahoo messenger.. BUT, i can ping outside IP Address and all IP of LAN , i can even use some peer to peer filesharing software and download files from the internet. well i thought that maybe the problem is with the system of the client (M$2k), but, i have a connection thru lan which also uses the same RH9 as internet GW and there is no problem with regards to browsing... btw, when I attemp to dial-up to my RH9, i disabled the ethernet connected to LAN so that only PPP adapter will become the present adapter after establishing the connection.......... below are my configuration setup of my RH9 box internet ----------123.123.123.24----------- eth0 of |RH9 Box|------------ttyS0---3com-usr-faxmodem LAN----------------192.168.1.1 -eth1-----------|RH9 BOX | 1.
