[ILUG] dial-up, can't ping

[Paul Askins]

/etc/diald.conf has the lines
local 0.0.0.0
remote 0.0.0.0
in it.  Could this be problem?  I should probably change the remote one to the
eircom ip.

I didn't know that ppp would use diald.conf though (if this is the problem).

Thanks everyone,

Paul.

 Most likely not & this is your problem.
 There's an option to ppp that does it, I think it's defaultroute . . .
 
 otherwise use 
 route add default gw <IP>
