Hello,

I recently upgraded my system to 4.5-release.  I kept my old ppp.conf file 
for the new system.  I have read the ppp chapter in the handbook about 5 
times.  ppp.conf, resolv.conf, and hosts all seem to be correct.  This 
machine is simply a desktop computer using a 56k dialup modem to my local 
ISP.  I can only see the websites of www.yahoo.com, www.microsoft.com, 
www.freebsd.com, and a few other major websites.  I cannot view 
www.topcities.com, www.snapfrog.com, www.apache.org, and most other smaller 
websites.  I have used opera and lynx, with the same results.  In Windows98, 
everything is working fine, using the same ISP.  Before I upgraded, I could 
view any website in FreeBSD.  Now, in lynx, when I try to view apache.org, 
for instance, it says "Looking up www.apache.org" for about 1/2 second, then 
just sits there while saying "Making http connection to www.apache.org" 
until finally it just stops.  I would appreciate any suggestions on this 
highly frustrating situation.

Thanks,

Korey
