Hi,

I've installed the 1.2 release sucessfully and everything seems to work but
the dialup connections.

The old (v1.1) pppd doesn't work and a v1.2 compatible is nowhere to be seen.
The dip program included in v1.2 works and I can establish a connection
*BUT* short after the connection sucessfully was made it freezes again and
nothing works anylonger.

When the connection is freezed only nslookup, ping and traceroute work.
If I remember right, these three progs only make udp transmissions, 
everything tcp based won't work (telnet, popclient, mosaic ...).

Is there any solution which fixes that problem ? (I need this because
my complete internet account /mail/news/ftp/web works under RiscBSD
and not under RiscOS so this is not a satisfieing situation for me)



Ciao, Peter
