I have spent many frustrating hours attempting to get User PPP working correctly! I am having an odd problem. I can FTP to any site except for my ISP's (Internet Service Provider's) FTP site (I can go to - ftp.cdrom.com but not - ftp.afn.org -). I can view any WWW page except for one that resides with my ISP (I can go to - www.povray.org - but not - www.afn.org -). I can get and send email via POP3/SMTP using Netscape to anyone using any mail server except for my ISP's (I can use - mail.gator.net - but not - smtp.afn.org/pop3.afn.org -). I can PING ANY site including my ISP. I have tried PINGing just about every address I can think of that belongs to my ISP with success! If I use a different ISP to establish the PPP connection then I can get my email and view my web page with no problem. I have a standard dial-up account. My ISP's info is as follows: DNS: 128.227.163.5 Domain: afn.org WWW: www.afn.org POP3: pop3.afn.org SMTP: smtp.afn.org Everything else is dynamic... netstat -nr produces the following output: Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 128.227.163.21 UGSc 5 6 tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 0 lo0 128.227.163.21 128.227.163.171 UH 6 0 tun0 here are the setup files: [ hosts ] 127.0.0.1 localhost # 10.0.0.1 localhost.my.domain localhost [ host.conf ] bind hosts [ resolv.conf ] nameserver 128.227.163.5 [ ppp.conf ] default: set device /dev/cuaa1 set speed 57600 disable lqr deny lqr set dial " ... this is obviously correct ... : set redial 1 100 pmdemand: set phone ... so is this ... set login " ... so is this ...
