Kppp dialer and resolv.conf problems.

[Graham Hamblin]

Hi

New to the list and this is my first post.

My intial install of Fedora Core 2 off www.linux-magazine.com had 
problems connecting by modem to the internet.   It appeared to connect 
ok but then nothing.

The problem arose because on connect temporary details were not written 
to /etc/resolv.conf.   There are two ways around the problem, there may 
be others.   Either disabling auto dns in kppp and opting for manual 
dns or editing /etc/resolv.conf with ISP details and domain 
nameservers.

I have only received copies of previous posts from a friend, these 
pointed me in the right direction.   Hope this is useful to others.

Regards
Graham Hamblin
