[LUG] RE: Google problems?



       I think the problem is at my end.
               
       Once a dial-up connection has been estabilshed and
       there is an idle moment Kinternet shows a short burst
       of traffic. After that I can no longer access Google.

       I made a dial-up connection, waited for the activity to
       occur and then dropped the connection..
       The messages log show the following activity
       which mostly concerns SuSEFirewall.

       To my untutored eye it looks as if some of my connections to the
       ISP are being dropped.
       I remember that SuSE recently updated their firewall and I suspect
       some of the rules have been changed. But it's all a bit over my
       head.
       Any one willing to help me sort it out?
