Remove the default route for your internal network. You should only need one default route, and if your internal network does not provide a route to the internet, you shouldn't have a default route for it. In /etc/sysconfig/network, make sure you have GATEWAY= GATEWAYDEV= and that should fix it. Hello I am new to Linux. Using RedHat 7.2. I have the same setup as described in this post and am having the same problem. I have a small home network with Samba, and a modem to dial into the Internet. I can connect fine with kppp but can't see anything on the Internet (except for the remote gateway). I have tried your resolution but that doesn't seem to work either. I have updated to the latest initscripts, ppp and pam packages using red hat network. I have also tried adding GATEWAY= and GATEWAYDEV= to the /etc/sysconfig/network file, with no success. I have a gateway set up to another machine that also dials to the Internet, so am able to browse the Internet via the network through that machine. However, I would also like to be able to use the dial-up as well. Here is the result of route -n before connecting using kppp: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 and here is the result of route -n after connnecting using kppp: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 203.167.253.60 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Hope you can help me. thanks in advance Faizal |
