I've recently got FreeBSD 2.2.5-stable through the post (upgrading from
2.1) and everything seems fine apart from my ppp connection to the
Internet.  Although I can connect, I have limited access to sites (e.g.
www.altavista.digital.com does not work).  My system is a three machine
network: 2 PCs running FreeBSD and Windows 95 (for work purposes - not
by choice!) and a Sun Sparc.  My internet connections is via the FreeBSD
PC.  I have configured the usual (ie. ppp.conf, ppp.linkup, et al,
resolve.conf to include the DNS servers of my ISP) but to no avail.  I'm
a bit stuck on this one.  It's probably something stupid I've done but
would appreciate any advice.

I connect to zoo.co.uk as my ISP which allocates IP address - I have
tried changing things such as my domain name to zoo.co.uk and my
hostname to ngould (account is ngould@zoo.co.uk)  but to no avail.  What
am I doing wrong?

Yours, hopefully,

Nathan

PS. Please reply also to nathan.gould@pgen.com as recieveing mail is
difficult as a result!
