I have an Apache Server and a Linux Workstation on my linux Network. That
works very fine.
With the workstation, I want go to Internet via modem. The connection with
the networks of the Internet Access Provider is good. (via kppp)
But, when I try to go to WWW (http://www.altavista.com), my Netscape don't
found this server. Netscape looks only on my networks.
Can you help me please ?

Use linuxconf at the command line.  On the config tab you will find a
networking lable, the lables or config options are presented in a tree
format.  You would choose Name Server Specification (DNS).  On that panel you
can add information for the DNS servers your ISP makes available.  Try to
confirm that the entry for "set default route" is correctly pointing to your
"internet gateway box"

Let us know how it goes
