Re: [Plug] Two networking questions...

Hi.
Actually I think it might be a routing problem. Check the output of
"netstat -rn" before and after you activate eth0. Its probably being set
as the default route (as opposed to ppp0) so all your traffic is trying
to go out over your lan. Unless you have a gateway to the internet on
your lan, eth0 should just have routes to the local network. Everything
else should be going out ppp0.
Hope that helps...

When I grow up, I wanna be more like me.
I had a clue. I didn't like it. I took it back and exchanged it for an
attitude.
