Re: [vox-tech] strange; i can't connect to certain sites

yup, that was the 1st thing i looked at.  my tables are as simple as simple
could be:

# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
64.0.0.0        *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 eth0
default         adsl-64-164-47- 0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0


my tcpwrappers look ok, and i don't have any ipchains (my kernel doesn't
support them; i can't find ipchains support in 2.4.0test9 -- i can only find
netfilter, and i don't have netfilter installed.

i still can't lynx to /., freshmeat, deja.com or scour.  i can connect to
just about everything else i've tried.  my connection is slower than what
i'm used to before we moved, but other than that, everything else seems ok.

i can live without /. or freshmeat, but i need scour and NEED deja.com.
