Hello,
Sorry for brining this to the list, but I've been grappling on my
own with this for the last two weeks now.
I had an ADSL connection at one point, but have moved home. With this, I
had to change ISP's in order to get ADSL where I now live. The thing is,
now that I've got this new ISP (Zen - 8 static IP's), I find that there
are sites that I am not able to get (browse) to, most concerning is
www.freebsdforums.org. Ever since I've got this new ADSL account, not
for hell nor high-water can I hit that site, using any browser, using
any OS (FreeBSD, RH £inux or MS Win2K Pro / XP) at home.
In addition to this, I am also unable to run traceroute from any FreeBSD
machine to *any* external site via IP address, nor WWW address, even
though I can from the MS Win machines.
With my previous ADSL provider (PIPEX) traceroute worked fine from *all*
machines, regardless of OS, hence my feeling it can't be anything to do
with ipfw running on my *nix boxes.., but then again..,
So here are my questions:
1] Does any here use Zen ADSL successfully and is able to connect to
www.freeBSDforums.org?
2] Does anyone know of any reason why traceroute might fail on FreeBSD,
but work on Win2K Pro?
Some info..,
I can ping www.freebsd.org:
$ ping www.freebsd.org

Needless to say there are no corresponding entries in /var/log/messages,
nor /var/log/security.
Please let me know if you'd want to see my ipfw rules, run any further
tests, etc. I didn't want this to go for too long, but I'll be willing
to provide any info you might need in order to assist.
Thanks for the time.
Regards,
Stacey
