adsl probs

[daniael]

hi there,
i've just got my new adsl connection working and its
much more stable than the cable I had before, but the thing is that I can't connect to Napter, Gnutella or any messenger service.
I'm running pptp-gui, could that be it?!
Or is it osx firewall....
please help, I dont want to go back to os9, happy with X

daniael,

Try Brickhouse firewall. open all ports en you will see everything works again.

With friendly regards,

have fixed pervious problem before with firewall x but now I
can't make any connection at all.
i tried, > sudo rm -rf /var/run/pptp in the terminal and it worked
for a while but not anymore...
what's going on.

One of the things to try if all else fails is to reset your modem...
