OK, solved that problem thanks, but now have another. Has anyone experienced their browser 'stalling' as netscape has it and not restarting? The connection stays up, just nothing happens. If I try to reload the page sometimes it will, sometimes hangs at a different point. It isn't just confined to netscape, I've tried other browsers. It's just a stndalone machine, no firewalls
Sounds like your DNS requests are timing out. If you set your dns (in /etc/resolv.conf) to a machine that can't be reached while netscape loads it may stall for ages.
I have a script to reorganise my DNS once pppd starts.
